Step 1
Peel the 1 small daikon and cut into 2 cm thick rounds. Cut the 200 g konnyaku into triangles and score lightly on both sides. Slice the 150 g fish cake into thick pieces.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring 4 cups dashi stock to a boil. Add the daikon and konnyaku, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until daikon is tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 3
Add the 4 chicken drumettes, 2 boiled eggs, and fish cake. Simmer gently for 10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and fish cake is heated.
Step 4
Season with soy sauce and mirin to taste (about 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp mirin). Simmer 2 more minutes, then serve hot in bowls with some broth.
