TOFU MEAT PATTIES

A simple pattie recipe that is easy to concoct with only 2 main ingredients, some aromatics and seasoning.   It’s so easy and yet I get to enjoy some soft and moist patties which are light, tasty and healthy.

Recipe adapted from Yum Yum Magazine No. 103 with modifications

Ingredients

300 gm minced meat [you can use 50:50 minced meat and fish paste]

½ block tofu

2 tbsp diced carrots

1 stalk spring onions – diced

Seasoning

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp 5 spice powder

1 tbsp each cornstarch and plain flour 

1. Cut tofu into quarters and leave in a colander to drain off excess water, then add to the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl.  Mix well all the ingredients into a paste.
2. Form the minced meat and tofu mixture into meatballs.
3. Put the meatballs into a heated pan, press lightly to flatten them..  Pan fry until golden brown on both sides.
4. Dish up and serve with chilli sauce.
