Ingredients

  • 1 block fresh or boxed tofu soft or silken
  • 2 oz. ground pork
  • 6 shrimps
  • 10 canned button mushroom
  • 3 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 1 stalk scallions chopped into small rounds
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil

Brown Sauce:

Instructions

  1. Cut the tofu into small pieces, pat dry with paper towels. Mix the brown sauce mixture well and set aside.

  2. Heat up a wok and add cooking oil. When the oil is heated, add garlic and stir-fry until light brown. Add in the ground pork, shrimp, and mushroom. Stir-fry to break the ground pork into smaller lumps, then follow by the tofu.

  3. Do a quick stir before adding the brown sauce mixture. Gently stir-fry the tofu and bring the sauce to boil. Add the chopped scallions, do a few quick stirs, dish out and serve immediately with steamed white rice.

Recipe Notes

If you use silken tofu, please be extremely gentle with the tofu when you cut and cook it.
