I wanted a simple dish for dinner tonight and here it is! 😀 Fuss-free and nutritious dish!
*Have to keep my post short due to time constraint*
Steamed tofu with minced pork
Ingredients:
- 1 pack of tofu (for steaming)
- 1 handful of minced pork
- 1 handful of mixed veggies
- 3 shallots (sliced thinly)
- oyster sauce
Marinate minced pork with:
- oyster sauce
- hua diao jiu
- ground white pepper
- cornflour
Method:
- Remove tofu from packaging and steam it for 5minutes.
- Fry the shallots till golden brown. Drain and set aside. Dish out some of the shallot oil, leaving some behind to fry the minced pork.
- Add in the minced pork and keep frying to ensure that there are no big lumps of pork.
- When minced pork is almost cooked, add the mixed veggies.
- Add oyster sauce to taste (you can add a little more than usual because the minced pork will be eaten with the bland tofu).
- Top tofu with fried minced pork.
- Drizzle shallot oil on the dish then top with the crispy shallots.
- Serve hot.
*You may add diced prawn and minced water chestnut to enhance the texture and taste of this dish but I didn’t have those ingredients with me today.
Alicia still doesn’t like tofu, but she loved the rest of the dish and she ate quite a bit of rice mixed with minced pork, the shallot oil, some of the mixed veggies and chopped french beans from the other dish. 😀 I think she just likes the shallot oil! lol.
