STEAMED TOFU WITH CHAI POR SAUCE

One of the simplest recipe but this dish is nice.  The fried cai por sauce is fragrant and tasty.  A good steaming sauce for the bland, soft tofu.  I enjoyed it very much.
This is a small portion but you can always increase the portion if preparing for more people. You can prepared it way ahead of meal time and steamed just before serving.
