Cooking tips
- Frying the tofu in oil beforehand enhances its flavor with a rich, nutty aroma and prevents it from breaking apart during cooking.
- If green chili peppers are unavailable, you can substitute with a few slices of bird’s eye chilies for a similarly aromatic and spicy kick.
- Always simmer the sauce uncovered to eliminate any fishy odor and ensure the broth reduces cleanly and smoothly.
Recommended for
- Those seeking a deeper, richer umami flavor than regular tofu stew.
- Home cooks wanting to quickly create a gourmet main side dish using pantry staples like canned tuna and tofu.
- Fans of dishes where rice is mixed thoroughly with a spicy-sweet sauce in one satisfying bowl.
