Stuffed Fried Tofu 2

Description

Ingredients

• 2 blocks tofu
• 6 water chestnuts
• 1 bamboo shoot
• 2 stalks green onion
• 4 dried Mushrooms
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 to 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons ginger juice
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 to 1 1/2 cups gluten burger
• 1 cup water from Mushrooms
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce

Directions

Slice tofu into 8 slices. Wrap in a cloth or paper towel to drain excess water. Wash and soak Mushrooms; squeeze and chop fine, reserving water.

Peel water chestnuts and mince, chop bamboo shoot, chop green onions fine. Fry sliced tofu in oil until golden brown. Slit the tofu, leaving 1/2 inch uncut edge.

Mix all ingredients, except ginger juice (if ingredients are too watery, cornstarch may be added), and stuff each tofu with 1 teaspoon of stuffing; seal with cornstarch paste (cornstarch mixed with a little water). Return stuffed tofu to the frying pan. Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch, ginger juice, 1 cup Mushroom water and Mushroom stems; pour over the tofu. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

May be garnished with Chinese parsley for serving.
