INGREDIENTS:
- 1 tsp. sesame oil
- one silken cubed tofu
- one teaspoon oyster sauce
- 1/4 lb. (100 g) ground pork
- 2 stalks scallions, diagonal cuts
- 1 red chili, diagonal cuts
- sugar to taste
- ground white pepper
- 1/2 cup water
- salt to taste
- two teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons dried shrimps
INSTRUCTIONS:
- For 10 minutes, warm water should be added to the dried shrimp. Cut up the dried shrimp into tiny pieces after draining the water from them.
- Take off the tofu and set it aside after it has steamed for five minutes in the pan. Cook the pork and shrimp in a tiny quantity of vegetable or canola oil until they are fragrant. Let all of the ingredients to a rapid, full boil in a large pot.
- Add the white pepper powder and scallions after you’ve seasoned with salt and sugar (to your liking). Stir the toppings into the steaming tofu for 30 seconds before serving.
- Serve with warm rice.
NOTES
- Tofu can be fried if you don’t like it steamed. Deep-fry your tofu by slicing it into cubes.
