Dinner Tonight - Tofu w/ Minced Meat Sauce

Dinner at home again tonight. This time it is tofu with a sauce of minced meat, mushrooms, carrots, onion and garlic. Oh, and topped with home grown spring onions. Yummmmm!


Minced Meat Sauce:
Minced meat (chicken, pork or beef)
Dried shitake mushrooms - soaked
Carrots - diced
Onion and garlic - minced

- Fry onion and garlic until brown, add minced meat and stir fry till half liquid evaporates. Add a dash of fish sauce, oyster sauce, chinese cooking wine, pepper and a pinch of brown sugar. Thicken the sauce with corn starch and pour hot mixture over steamed tofu. Garnish with freshly chopped spring onions.

Hi,
stumbled upon your blog from MB forum.
Interesting read and have to compliment your cooking skills, compared to mine, that is. ;)

Cheers!

Haha thanks but it's nothing special really. All those years sticking by mommy's skirts when I was little and being forced to cook while studying abroad paid off I guess.
Gotta feed myself and hubby somehow lah...:P
