Casual Tofu

Category : ,


This is one big comfort food reminds me how mama Cheng shows her love back in Taiwan days. It's a dish hard to be leftover and so very eays to pick up with plain rice and ready to eat. I wouldn't say it's a top rank difficulty to cook, but does requires a little bit patience and some skills when it comes to toss the stubborn tofu.

Ingredients / Preparation:
1. 350g tofu / slice to 1cm thick squares
2. 2 green onions / cut into 3cm lengths
3. soy sauce / 1 tablespoon
4. oyster-mushroom sauce / 1 teaspoon
5. dark rice wine vinegar / 1 teaspoon
6. water / 1/3cup
7. cooking oil / 1 tablespoon (I use a lot of Rice Bran oil in pan fried or deep fried dishes due to it's higher smoke point than olive oil.)







Method:
1. Heat cooking oil in a medium non-stick frying pan over medium heat for 1 min. Add tofu and cook till it's golden colour, toss tofu to the other side and let it cook till it's golden colour as well.

2. Bring the heat down to a small heat, add green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark wine vinegar and water, and cook for 1 minute. Toss tofu again and cook for another minute.

3. Place tofu on serving plates, serve with rice.

Nagging PDD:
• Tofu are such fragile little yummy things, becareful everytime when toss them, try to slide them back and forth (imagine an Italian chef cooking pasta) in the pan before flip them, it would make it easier and prettier!
