Categories     dinner, one pot, main course, side dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Vegetable oil for deep frying
1 pound firm tofu (bean curd), cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Chinese brown bean sauce
2 cups water
4 large ribs bok choy, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 tablespoon sake or sherry
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 4 tablespoons cold water
2 tablespoons Chinese oyster sauce
2 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
Fresh coriander leaves

Steps:

  • In a wok, heat the oil for deep frying to 375 degrees, or until a piece of scallion placed in the oil bubbles and sizzles rapidly. Pat the tofu cubes dry with a paper towel. Fry the cubes in the oil for about 5 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Drain on paper towels and set aside. When the cubes are cool, cut each one in half.
  • Pour off the frying oil from the wok. Over high heat, add the peanut oil to the wok, then the garlic and brown bean sauce, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the fried bean curd pieces, the water and the bok choy and bring to a boil. Cover the wok, lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Uncover, raise the heat, add the sake or sherry, the sugar and as much of the cornstarch mixture as is needed to thicken the dish, stirring constantly. Add the oyster sauce and scallions and mix well. Garnish with coriander and serve with plain boiled rice.

1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon light soy sauce

Cut the bamboo shoots, celery and ham into similar strips. Soak mushrooms 15 minutes in warm water, discard the stems and cut into similar julienne strips. Mince garlic.

Tips:

  • Use firm or extra firm tofu: This will prevent the tofu from breaking apart during cooking.
  • Press the tofu before cooking: This will remove excess water and help the tofu absorb the flavors of the sauce.
  • Cut the tofu into bite-sized pieces: This will ensure that the tofu cooks evenly.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: This will help prevent the tofu and pork from sticking.
  • Cook the tofu and pork over high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the tofu and pork.
  • Add the sauce and vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the vegetables from becoming overcooked.
  • Serve the stir-fried bean curd with ground pork and oyster sauce immediately: This dish is best enjoyed when served hot.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried bean curd with ground pork and oyster sauce is a quick and easy dish that is packed with flavor. It is a great way to use up leftover tofu and ground pork.
