Shred the cabbage leaves and halve the cherry tomatoes for garnish.

Drain the tofu and mash it in a bowl. Add ground meat, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well to form a uniform mixture.

Shape the mixture into patties of equal size.

Heat salad oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the patties until golden brown on both sides.

In the same pan, mix sake, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar to create the teriyaki sauce. Simmer until slightly thickened.

Add the cooked patties back into the pan and coat them evenly with the sauce.
