Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Fry all sides of the tofu until golden to prevent crumbling during cooking and preserve its chewy texture.
  • Adding eggplant too early causes it to absorb too much sauce; always pre-cook it in the microwave and add at the end to avoid sogginess.

Recommended for

  • Those who found the texture of soggy eggplant dishes disappointing.
  • People looking for a spicy, savory, and unique tofu side dish.
