Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

tofu 1 block
chili tuna 1 can
onion 1/2
green onion 1/2
dried anchovy sauce 2 tsp
vegetable oil as needed
sesame oil a little
black pepper a little

Recipe 🍳

Cut tofu into bite-sized cubes and pat dry with a kitchen towel or cloth.
Dice the onion finely and set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a pan and use two spoons to gently flip the tofu, browning all sides without breaking it.
When oil splatters, reduce heat and add 2 tsp dried anchovy sauce and minced onion.
Add 1 can of chili tuna and stir to let the flavors coat the tofu and onion evenly.
Simmer until the sauce reduces to a thick, moist consistency, then drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle a little black pepper.
Garnish generously with chopped green onion before serving.

Cut tofu into cubes, remove moisture, and prepare vegetables.
Pan-fry tofu until golden, then add dried anchovy sauce and onion.
Add chili tuna, simmer until sauce thickens, then finish with sesame oil, black pepper, and green onion.

Cooking tips 💡

When flipping tofu, support it with two small spoons to prevent breaking and ensure even browning.
When opening the can, pull from the outer side rather than the inner edge to avoid injury.
