    If you use silken tofu, the batter will be a bit looser, so add more katakuriko until it's firm enough, adjusting the amount as you mix.

    I personally prefer making the fritters with silken tofu because they turn out very light and fluffy.

    This is also delicious with chopped shiso leaves instead of green beans.
