Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Frying the tofu without a coating ensures a crisp exterior that absorbs more sauce, enhancing flavor and texture.
  • If bamboo shoots or dried shiitake mushrooms are unavailable, substitute with other available mushrooms, carrots, or onions.
  • For children or those preferring a milder taste, replace chili oil with regular vegetable oil for a lighter, more delicate flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a unique and elegant tofu dish instead of the usual braised tofu.
  • People who enjoy dishes with contrasting textures—crispy exterior and moist interior.
  • Individuals looking for a balanced, nutritious main course combining vegetables and protein.
