- Drain the cooking water and wrap the tofu with a sheet of kitchen paper.
- Place a small plate over the wrapped tofu and leave it for 5 minutes.
- Add the panko to the bowl and add beaten egg to the bowl.
- Add tofu by breaking it into small pieces with your hands.
- Add ground beef and pork, cooked and cooled onion to the mixing bowl.
- Knead all the ingredients with your hands until the mixture becomes uniform in colour and pasty.
- Divide the mixture into six equal portions.
- Roll the mixture into oval shaped patties.
- Toss the patties between your hands firmly several times to remove any air pockets out of the patties.

Notes
- *1 Ratio of Beef and Pork is 80:20. I used 8oz (240g) beef and 2oz (60g) pork. You can adjust this ratio to your liking. The more pork meat you use, the patties will be softer.
- *2 If you don't have Panko, you can make this following the recipe here.
- *3 To check whether the patties are cooked, pierce the centre of a patty with a bamboo skewer. If the exuding juice is clear, it is cooked.
