Deep fried chunks of tofu braised with black mushrooms and vegetables in a light oyster sauce. It is perfect on a bed of steamed rice.

- Cut the bean curd into rectangular pieces. Soak dried mushrooms in water until they soften. Squeeze off the excess water and shred. Save the soaking water. Shred the bell peppers. Heat up a skillet with oil until hot. Pan-fry the bean curd until golden brown.
- Remain a bit of oil in the same skillet to stir fry the minced garlic and mushrooms until aromatic. Add in shredded bell peppers and stir-fry briefly, then drizzle in rice wine, chicken bouillon, dark soya and oyster sauces. Pour in soaking liquid and bean curd pieces. Cover and simmer for 3-5 minutes. Stir in cornstarch mixed with a tablespoon of cold water. Increase the heat and cook until sauce has thickened. Add in scallion and the sesame oil, toss through and serve at once with steamed rice.

Oh Angie that looks so good! I wish I lived next door - I'd be knocking on your back door with Moon!
Angie, this is another healthy delicious dish that you have prepared. I like tofu but, don't like to prepare it myself. However, if you served it up to me, I would eat all of it and my plate would be clean.
P.S. You left a question on my blog post about the type of carrot juice I used for my broth. The brand I used is an organic 100% carrot juice made by a company called Bolthouse Farms. I hope this is helpful.
This is indeed a delicious dish, great, mix with rice.
This dish is one of my favourites. Whenever I go into a Chinese restaurant, I'd order this braised bean curds, good for going with rice. Yummy!
i love tofu n these flavors sound great for it...i always use my homemade tofu n will try this with some minor tweaks as some of the ingredients are not available here..
