Sunrise Delight: Crispy Fried Golden Tofu and Egg Harmony"

Hey, folks, welcome to my foodie web.

After the previous recipe 'Golden Braised Tofu with Tomatoes: The Ultimate dish deeply rooted in every Chinese's stomachs', today I am gonna to share the second method for tofu cuisine in home-based Chinese cooking. It is ' Fried Golden Tofu and Egg'. Let us skip the story about tofu, since I have introduced in previous post.

Are you missing the mean while you are on the way to eat less red/white meat or be a (not strict) vegetarian? Imagine when combine the main substitute of meat, Tofu, with egg, what a wonderful collision! It is mom's cooking!

Get ready to transform humble tofu into a masterpiece of flavour and texture?! 

Prep & Cook Time: 1 min Difficulty Level: Low

Spice Level: Low Cook Within: 7 min

Ingredients

• 1 cup firm tofu cubes

• 2-3 eggs (personal-dependent)

• 1-0.5 tomato (optional)

• 3 cloves garlic minced (optional)

• 1 chili (optional), I like spicy food, so usual with 3

• 1-3 spring onion keep white and green part separated (optional)

Sauces

• ½ teaspoon sugar

• 1 tbsp soy sauce

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper powder (optional)

• 1 tbsp tomato ketchup

• Salt as per taste

• 1 cup water adjust to get the desired consistency

• 2 tbsp cooking oil

• 1 tbsp corn starch

Instructions

1. Prepare sauce mixtures

• In a bowl whisk together soy sauce, sugar, black pepper, tomato ketchup, salt, water and corn starch

2. Chop chili, ginger and tomato into small pieces

3. Cooking

• Whisk the eggs in a bowl

• Heat the oil in a skillet until you can see the bubbles when you dig a chopstick in the oil

• Fry the tofu. 1 min later, spread eggs over the edge and top surface of tofu.

• the Watch as the tofu sizzles and dances, gradually transforming from pale cubes to beautifully golden nuggets in two sides

• Gently add the fiery red chilies and aromatic ginger slices into the waiting pan. It is a time to infuse our creation with a burst of vibrant flavours, as the chilies release their heat, and the ginger offers its warm and earthy essence to mingle with golden tofu

• Pour the sauce mixtures into the pan and cook for another 1-2 minutes. This secret step will transforms the sauce into a velvety elixir that gently coats the tofu and make it more tender

• Finally decorate with green leaves

• Serve hot with couscous porridge or steamed rice

Note:

After you add the sauce mixtures into the pan, stir the elements to fully and lovingly envelops each piece of golden tofu. Meanwhile, this step should be continuously within 50 secs to prevent the pan getting sticky and burned because of the corn starch.

The moment of culinary triumph has arrived!   :) 

Imagine the satisfaction as you scoop up a generous portion, the tofu glistening with its savoury coat alongside a bowl of nourishing couscous porridge. The contrast between the crispy-tender tofu and the comforting, healthy couscous is a symphony of balance and delight for your healthy foodie life!
