HOW TO COOK BATCHOY WITH TOFU


How To Cook Batchoy With Tofu –recently I have discovered another version of this dish. Batchoy is originally cooked with blood but not all of us like it this way so I came up with the idea of replacing the blood with Tofu and this time we are going to cook Batchoy in another way. I am not sure if there are some people who cook it this way so I do not claim this recipe as my very own version of Batchoy. Here is the recipe:



Ingredients
1 kilo of Canton noodles
½ kilo of pork
½ kilo of pig’s liver (chopped into ¼” x ¼ “)
1 cup of diced Tofu
4 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of spring onions (chopped)
1 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper
2 cups of Chicharon (crushed)
2 heads of garlic (crushed)
15 cups of water

Cooking Procedure
  1. In a pan, heat oil and saute garlic until golden brown. Set aside.
  2. In the same pan, fry the Tofu until golden brown. Set aside.
  3. In a pot, boil water. Add pepper and salt. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  4. Add the pork. Simmer until the pork is cooked.
  5. Add the Tofu and simmer for 5 minutes.
  6. Add the Sauteed garlic and Canton noodles and simmer until the noodles are cooked.
  7. Scatter spring onions and Chicharon over the noodles when serving.
