Homestyle Chinese Quick Braised Tofu with Minced Meat 家常红烧豆腐 Chinese Style Beancurd Recipe Tau Kwa
This Homestyle Chinese Quick Braised Tofu with Minced Meat is a classic dish that almost all Chinese moms know how to make. This dish is perfect with rice or porridge. Minced pork is added to lend different texture to the tofu ; however, if you are vegetarian, you can omit it or replace it with mushrooms. If you are a Muslim, you can substitute minced chicken for the minced pork and leave out the Chinese cooking wine. Consider adding mushrooms or long beans to make the dish a one-dish meal. Happy cooking!
See the ingredient list below for your easy reference.
Hope you can recreate this yummy recipe in the comfort of your home. Happy cooking!
