Fried tofu braised in tomato sauce

Overview

My love for tofu is related to the fact that I often ate it when I was a child. At that time, my hometown had land and soybeans were grown at home. Because it was easy to obtain materials, my mother often thought of ways to make soy products for us to eat, such as soy milk, tofu curd, bean dregs fried with garlic sprouts, and spiced bean cakes made from the leftover bean dregs after making tofu. I still drool just thinking about it. Especially after being fried with camellia at home, it is really delicious. This food is rarely seen nowadays, what a pity! Tofu is rich in nutrients, cheap and good quality, and its plant protein is easily absorbed by the human body. There are various ways to make it. LG children love to eat it, and I often have it on the dining table at home. Today’s tofu is worth a try for those who love tofu. The texture is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, coupled with the taste of sweet and sour tomato juice, which is very exciting on the tip of the tongue. Needless to say, let’s take a look at the detailed recipe!

  5. Cut the tomatoes into cubes (you can peel them, but I think tomato skins are very nutritious so I omit this step)

  6. Pour in the peanut oil from which the tofu has been fried, and heat up a little base oil left in the pot. Add the onions and sauté until fragrant. Add the tomatoes and fry until they become sandy. Add a little water, chicken powder, Lee Kum Kee tomato sauce, and sugar. Cook until the sauce thickens, then pour in the tofu and cook briefly. Do not turn it vigorously, so as not to affect the appearance.
