How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Tofu
- Choose tofu pieces that are off-white, similar to the color of soybeans, smooth to the touch, and not hard or dry.
- Fresh and delicious tofu will have a fragrant smell and a characteristic fatty taste of soybeans. Avoid tofu that has a faint smell of lime, as it will taste bland, dry, and spongy.
- Absolutely do not choose tofu that is yellowing, as these pieces contain a lot of gypsum, which is not good for health.

Next, add 2 spoons of fish sauce, 1 spoon of monosodium glutamate, 1 spoon of sugar, and 1 spoon of water into a bowl, then stir well to dissolve all the seasonings. Finally, add the sliced chili and green onions, and stir well.

Cooking the dish
First, you place a pan on the stove, and after the pan is hot, pour 500ml of cooking oil into the pan. When the oil is hot, start adding the tofu to the pan and fry it evenly on all sides over low heat.
When you see the tofu is crispy and golden brown, take it out onto a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the oil.
Next, pour the prepared sauce into the pan, turn on the stove, and wait until the sauce starts to simmer, then add the fried tofu and stir evenly. After a while, when the sauce begins to reduce, turn off the stove and plate the dish.
