STIR FRIED EGG TOFU WITH BOK CHOY / TAHU TELUR GORENG BOK CHOY

I love this egg tofu with bok choy. This is one of my favorite and used to eat it plain with rice, with no other dishes. The combination of oyster sauce and tofu made this dish fantastic. You can cut the tofu according to your preference. However this tofu needs extra care when you do the deep frying. For that reason I made my tofu big, just cut it half. For the vegetables you can used any type, anything goes with this recipe, some suggestions are green bellpepper, leeks, baby corn, carrot or even broccoli. Try this, its tasty and healthy,

Tahu telur ini sedap masak ala China, menggunakan sos tiram. Ini adalah menu kesukaan saya. Biasanya ratah aje. Kalau pun makan dengan nasi saya tidak suka campur dengan menu lain, biasanya saya hiriskan bawang besar dan cili padi bersama kicap manis perah air limau, buat sambal kicap. Cukup boleh lajak sampai dua pinggan. Cara memasaknya mudah aje, tahu ini saya biarkan besar-besar gitu, tapi kalu hendak bolehlah dinipiskan. Sesuai makan bersama nasi untuk hidang tengah hari mahupun makan malam
