This is another simple and easy homey recipe which I
tried. Surprisingly good and tasty dish to
serve with piping hot plain porridge especially for me cos' I love soya products.
If you prefer this dish to be more spicy, used small red
and green chillies like I did or you can substitute with the less spicy type of
chillies and capsicum.
The salty black
beans are tasty and it is always good with the porridge. Do try
this dish if firm beancurd is one of your favorite food ingredients, you will
like it. You can omit the garlic if
serving this as vegetarian dish.
Recipe adapted from Yum Yum Magazine No. 60 with slight
modifications

3-4 pieces hard beancurd [taukwa] – pan fried till golden

Oh goodness, this looks so tempting! Makes me wanna go and get me some tofu to make this!
Kimmy, I enjoy taukwa just fried plain and eaten with chili sauce. So if cooked with salted black beans, lagi delicious. I think I may have a bottle of this tau see somewhere in the house. LOL!
Looks yummy!
Give me some new ideas for porridge next time, tq.
Hi Emily, this has become one of my favorite dishes for porridge. Loves to pick of the pieces of black beans to go with a mouthful of porridge. Yum Yum.
Hi Phong Hong, sometimes I can crave for fried taukwa that I can just have a few pieces of it for lunch. During my younger days, there used to be a mobile cart that sells fried taukwa with sweet and spicy dipping sauce complete with ground peanuts passing by our house. That time it was only 15 cents a piece.
Hi Kimmy,
I love tau see and it is very nice in a lot of dishes, even noodles. Your taukwa dish looks so good! My family love dishes like this!
Hi Joyce, honest comment - I don't mind having this dish regularly. It is good with rice and porridge. My family loves this too cos' they finished everything in the plate.
