HOW TO COOK DRIED TOFU (Dàxi Dòugan)

How to Cook Dried Tofu (Dàxi Dòugan) –I can’t get enough of these Taiwanese dishes so here I am again going to share  with you this another version of Dried Tofu that came from Taiwan, it is called Dàxi Dòugan, I am not sure what does it mean but one thing is for sure, this dish is mouth watering. This food is made out of dried tofu combined with bean sprouts and chili. As for the condiment, to me there is no better than soy sauce because it is perfect for the tofu. This dish is very similar to what the Filipinos call tokwa’t baboy although pork has nothing to do with Dàxi Dòugan. If you are not a big fan of soy sauce, don’t worry because you can replace it hot barbecue or hot chili sauce as you desired. Here is how to cook Dried Tofu (Dàxi Dòugan):

INGREDIENTS

200 grams bean sprout

4 pieces dried tofu (cut into thin strips)

4 cloves garlic (minced)

1 tablespoon brown sugar (or according to your taste)
