A special braised tofu dish with golden-browned pork belly and tofu simmered in a savory seasoned vegetable base.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Layering vegetables on the bottom releases moisture during simmering, preventing the meat and tofu from sticking or burning.
  • Adding a little fermented anchovy sauce to the seasoning creates a deeper umami and richer flavor compared to using only salt.
  • Salting the tofu before frying draws out moisture, helping it hold its shape during cooking and giving it a chewier texture.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a main dish with meat instead of a plain braised tofu.
  • Those looking for a spicy, deeply savory rice-stealing side dish.
  • Those who want a hearty braised dish that serves as both a meal and a side dish.
