Steamed Chicken Tofu


Many years ago, a friend of mine posted a recipe of this dish on her facebook.

Knowing that my Ma love tofu so much I decided to give it a try.
She gave me her "this is delish" look and that was all that I needed.
My Ma's approval.

*grin*

I prolly didn't document it in here but I'm pretty sure I do have the picture somewhere in my archive folder / Instagram post.

It was so simple that I can still remember the-what and how to at the back of my head. I promise!

Fast forward to 2019, a few days ago while I was roaming in the hypermarket to get my groceries, I saw them tofu in the produce section I immediately think of the yummy Prawn steamed tofu that I made for my Ma, years ago. and nope, yours truly didn't refrain herself from getting the ingredients.

So are you ready?

Ingredient:

Smooth tofu
Egg Tofu
Carrot
Chicken
Salt
Seasoning
Egg


How to:

Mashed them tofus, grate the carrot, cut the chicken.
Mixed all of them together with the salt, seasoning & Egg.
Then steam it until it's cooked.

Once done you can cut it into the shape that you want.
and eat it as it is, or you can fry it for a bit to have the crispiness.

My take away for this batch.

I used this small pink container so I don't have to cut it.

You can play around with the sub ingredient, swap the carrot with any vegetable of your liking and the meat too. After trying this batch, I can say that it tasted better with prawn. and that's just my personal preference.

I mashed them tofus so the texture was chunky unlike my previous attempt, I use the blender so it came out smooth.


Happy Cooking!

What you'll need Mince Lamb - 700 grams 1 Onion - Chop it 4 Carrots - grated Capsicum (Red) - chop it. 2 Tomatoes - Chop it 3 Stalks of Spring Onion Note: Make it as tiny as possible. How you do it, it’s up to your creativity. :) Spices  (1 teaspoon each) Garam Masala Corriander Powder Chili Powder 2 Table Spoon of flour Salt to taste How To Mix everything together. I leave this mixture overnight. It tasted better. Most probably because the longer you leave it, the seasoned it'll be. So if you have a skewer, go ahead and grab it. Else just shape it in whichever shape that you'd love. Some will go for the ball shape. the other will do the cylinder shape. Long or short? Your call. Rule of thumb; regardless if you're using the grill of the pan don't turn it until they are well sealed. You'll end up transferring the meat to the grill. Patience is the key. Now, Happy cooking. xx Amy H

White Layer (Top) 1 cup of Coconut Milk 2 and a half cups of water 6 tablespoons of rice flour 1 teaspoon of salt Jar or any container. How to:- Prep the green layer first for this will be at the bottom. Mix the green layer ingredients together. Make sure there's no lump Sieve - guess what, if you don't skip this step, the percentage of having lump is to non-existance. Trust me, for I learned my lesson from the hands-on experience. lol Now, this is where the magic begins. No fancy pot, just use whatever that you have, place it on the cooker, electric or gas. The keyword is "Stir" therefore make no mistake. Whatever happens whilst making this "kuih" you must ensure you keep on stirring it. You can start with maximum heat, as i
