Crispy Salted Egg Yolk Tofu

Story

This dish transforms simple tofu into a decadent treat using the savory richness of salted egg yolks. The key is to cook the yolks until they foam and coat the tofu evenly.

Ingredients

Soft tofu 300g
Salted egg yolks 3 units
Cooking oil 2 tbsp
Chopped green onions 2 tbsp

Instructions

1

Prep Ingredients

Dice the tofu into 1cm cubes. Briefly blanch them in hot water to firm up, then drain. Finely chop the cooked salted egg yolks and slice the green onions.

2

Fry the Egg Yolks

Heat oil in a flat-bottomed pan over low heat. Add the chopped salted egg yolks and mash them while frying. Continue cooking until the yolks turn into a bubbling, sandy paste.

3

Combine and Serve

Add the tofu cubes to the pan, spreading them out in a single layer. Gently stir-fry until the pieces are evenly coated with the egg yolk mixture. Garnish with green onions before serving.
