Hakka Yong Tau Foo

Overview

Hakka Yong Tau Foo is the most common dish on the dining table of our Hakkas. We make it every festival or when relatives and friends come over!

First chop the lean meat into minced meat, or you can buy it ready-made.
Then add soy sauce, chopped green onion, minced garlic, cornstarch, chicken essence, and shiitake mushrooms to the minced meat to marinate for preparation.
Cut the tofu into four or two small triangles.
Be careful not to use too much force when opening the tofu with chopsticks! Then stuff with the prepared meat filling.
Pour oil into the pan to preheat, then add tofu and slowly fry over low heat until both sides are golden brown.
Pour off the excess oil, add half a bowl of water, add some salt and soy sauce and simmer over medium heat for three minutes.
Place the braised tofu on a plate.
Put some oil in the pot, sauté the chili sauce, minced garlic, and green onions until fragrant, then pour in three small spoons of cornstarch water to thicken it.
Pour the thickened gravy onto the tofu and you're done!
