Spicy Tofu


Made some tofu today, and so spicy tofu is already planned on my mind for dinner tonite!




Nothing taste more better than self made tofu. Maybe its because when I am just beginning to enjoy the harvest of hard labour of cooking (have just cracked the tofu recipe), it somehow made the dish more appetizing!





Ingredients


1 piece fresh tofu


1/2 cup of frozen mix veges


1/3 cup pork mince


1/3 cup tin meat cubes


1 red onion(finely chopped)


2 gloves garlic(finely chopped)


1 cup water


1 tbsp spicy sauce(any type preferred)


1 tsp sesame oil


1 tbsp oyster sauce


salt and pepper to taste


olive oil for frying


corn starch for thickening





Heat a small sauce pan, put olive oil and fry the tofu until slightly golden brown on each side. In a wok, heat olive oil, put onion and garlic into the wok and fry until fragrant. Add in spice sauce and stir fry the sauce evenly. Add pork mince and meat cubes. Fry until slightly cook and add veges. Add sesame oil, oyster sauce and salt/pepper follow by water. Reduce the liquids in half and then add in corn starch( mixed with a little water) to thicken the gravy.





Put tofu onto serving plate and pour the spicy sauce over it. serve hot.
