Stuffed Tofu and Eggplant / to ( Flower ) Market , to Market !
I've posted about it several months ago but it's worth posting it the second time around .....
It's simple and easy to prepare , delicious and most of all it's cheap !
It's a ubiquitous Hongkong street food but I prefer eating it with rice .
I've forgotten how to call it in Cantonese - my 3 translator are MIA ^-^'' , maybe it's also called yong tau fu , I googled it and that is what Google spewed out ! lol
Mine's more like topping though as I just spread the minced fish evenly on the top of tofu and eggplant and pan-fried it .
If you can't find minced ( dace ) fish , you can use minced pork or shrimp or a combination .
Ah !!!! Basil ! If only I don't have a black thumb ! tsk tsk
Hungry ?! Don't worry ! There are some bakeries/resto around ! lol
Poor chicken ! Mmmmmmmmm !
What beautiful photos. Going to check out you previous post for the stuffed tofu. Love that stuff. Happy weekend to you.

ReplyDeleteooo yummy vegetarian food! i have never had it before, but based on my experience of street food in asia (never in hong kong, sadly) i'm pretty sure i need to make this immediately.

ReplyDeleteYong tau foo, definitely one of our favourite! Good with rice, in soups, with noddles or just eat it with some chilli sauce! Looks delicious! I love steamed chicken!
ReplyDeleteI just had YTF yesterday:D Poor chicken indeed! LOL!
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm, yum! I love stuffed eggplants! Your photo is making my mouth water, I can't wait to make some for myself!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post. I enjoy having YTF cause it isn't too heavy to have it during lunch or dinner. Btw, yours looks really tempting.
