Next up on our CNY recipes is another awesome dish that’s oh-so-easy to make!
Braised tofu with dried scallops go extremely well with abalone sauce – it’s healthy, tasty, and something to indulge in during your reunion dinners. We chose to use Vitasoy Organic Sprouted Pressed Tofu for that creamier taste that pairs very well in this dish.
For an even golden tofu color, do start by deep frying on a medium to high heat, just when the oil starts to ‘smoke’. Also, look out not to overcook the spinach as well as they take about 30 seconds for the leaves, and a minute for the stems!
Once you have all this, get ready to indulge in a delicious tofu taste-bomb!
