Pictures soon I promise...I was too busy eating it to think about photographing it this time.
Ingredients
half a block of tofu cut into one inch long and 1 cm thick pieces
soy sauce
approx 1 tablespoon sesame oil
approx 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil
sea salt
quarter of a spoon of dwaenjang
a few pinches of sesame seeds
1 small spring onion
Directions
- Cut the spring onion into diamond shape slices and put to one side
- Mix about 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the dwaenjang together in a small bowl. You might need to add a tiny amount of hot water to the paste to get it mixed, depending on how solid it is.
- Heat a small amount of sesame oil and olive oil together in a small frying pan.
- Fry the tofu for about 5-10 minutes, turning ocassionally until it is well browned on both sides. Sprinkle a bit of sea salt on ocassionally. Once it is almost done, pour about half a tablespoon of soy sauce into the pan and as it sizzles away, move the tofu pieces through it.
- Arrange the tofu pieces on a plate in an attractive manner. Add a bit more salt depending on how much you like ( I like mine quite salty). Sprinkle the spring onion on top and then drizzle the soy sauce and dwaejang mixture over the top (put a bit on first...then add more if, having tasted it you want more). sprinkle a few sesame seeds over the top. Voila, a yummy side dish or snack!
Sheer beauty on a plate. ^^
Aiiigo!
