Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 200 g Firm tofu (板豆腐) half a box, sliced into 6 pieces
  • 1 large Tomato (番茄) cut into small chunks
  • 3-4 Fresh shiitake mushrooms (鮮香菇) sliced into strips
  • 1 handful Enoki mushrooms (金針菇) chopped short
  • 2 tbsp Cooking oil (食用油)
  • 1 tbsp Ketchup (番茄醬) sauce base
  • 1 tsp Sugar (糖) balances acidity
  • 1 tsp Salt (鹽) to taste
  • 1/4 tsp White pepper (白胡椒粉)
  • 60 ml Water (水) for the glossy sauce

Method
 

Prep Everything
    Bloom the Mushrooms
      Fry Tofu and Tomato
        Glaze and Reduce

          Notes

          The order of cooking matters: bloom the mushrooms first, then fry the tofu golden, and add the tomato last so it melts into the sauce. Serve over steamed rice as a rice bowl (蓋飯) for a complete meal.
