One of the more popular ways to enjoy yong tau fu. This method of serving yong tau hu originated from Ampang, KL.
A thick gravy-like black bean sauce is drenched over pieces of deep fried yong tau fu, which consists of the usual stuff like stuffed beancurd (we used Vitasoy Organic Sprouted Tau Kwa), eggplant and bitter gourd etc.
For meat lovers (like us), try using minced pork in place of prawns for a meaty bite!
