  5. Add the tofu, add a small amount of water and dark soy sauce to enhance the color. It is best to directly push the soup in the pot to stir-fry the tofu evenly. Do not stir the tofu directly. This way it won't break easily and the shape will be better when it comes out. Add gravy twice. After adding the gravy for the first time, wait for the water to come out before adding the gravy again. Collecting the juice twice will make the color thicker
