Tofu with mushrooms recipe (Stir-fry with minced chicken)

Video Description

Tofu with mushrooms is a popular dish in most Cantonese families, and I've been eating it since I was a kid. Families prepare this recipe differently; some use meat, while others opt for a vegetarian version. In this article, I'll share my family recipe, which includes minced chicken. This dish is popular because tofu has a mild flavor that absorbs flavors. When we braise the tofu, it absorbs the sauce, making it tasty. The same goes for mushrooms - they absorb whatever flavors are available. This is why tofu and mushrooms are incredibly delicious. In this video, I'll explain in detail how to cook this dish so that you can enjoy this Cantonese favorite at home. ======================================= Recipe: (Please download the recipe and read the full details at https://tasteasianfood.com/tofu-with-mushrooms/ ) Ingredients A 100g chicken breast meat, minced 1/4 tsp of salt 2 tsp light soy sauce 1 tbsp vegetable oil 2 tsp cornstarch Ingredients B 50g shitake mushrooms 50g king oyster mushrooms 50g shimeiji mushrooms 1 tbsp of chopped garlic 6 slices of ginger 200g firm tofu 1/2 cup water 1/4 red bell pepper 1/4 green bell pepper Ingredients C 2 tbsp light soy sauce 1 tbsp sesame oil 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine (optional) 1/2 tsp salt 1 tbsp oyster sauce 1/4 tsp ground white pepper Ingredients D Green onions Red chili Method:: Preparation and fry the tofu: - Marinate the chicken with Ingredients A for 10 minutes. - Cut the fresh shiitake mushrooms into strips, king oyster mushrooms into batons, and remove the root section of the enoki mushrooms. - Cut the bell peppers into thin strips, and prepare the chopped garlic and ginger slices. - Place the tofu on a dry cloth to remove the excess water.
