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)
2 red hot chili
½ cup soy sauce
Salt to taste
Oil for frying

COOKING PROCEDURE
1. In a pan, fry the tofu until golden brown.
2. Remove from the pan and set aside.
3. Saute garlic until brown.
4. Add all the remaining ingredients (not the tofu), bring to boil and simmer until the bean sprouts are cooked.
5. In a serving plate, assemble the tofu. Scoop bean sprout and pour over the tofu.

HOW TO COOK GONGWAN (PORK BALLS)

 How to Cook Gongwan (Pork Balls) –this is a Taiwanese version of pork balls. It is similar to what we always eat, the meatballs but since this is a Taiwanese version, there are ingredients we do not usually find in the ordinary meatballs. You can replace pork with beef or chicken if you feel like you would rather use chicken or beef instead of pork. You can even use fish with this recipe as long as it is ground so that you can make balls out of it. I want to remind you that if there is a member of your family that has allergy from chilli, please replace it with another barbecue sauce that has no chilli in it because you don’t want your son (for instance) to suffer from his allergy. Here is how to cook Gongwan (Pork Balls):



INGREDIENTS
1 pound pork (ground)
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (toasted)
1 egg (whisked)
1 teaspoon kecap manis
2 teaspoon Mama Sita’s oyster sauce
½ cup cornstarch
¼ cup fresh basil (chopped)
1 green shallot, trimmed ends (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
Cooking oil for frying
Chili sauce


COOKING PROCEDURE
1. In a bowl, combine pork, egg, kecap manis, cornstarch, basil, oyster sauce, garlic and green shallots. Stir until uniform in texture.
2. Let marinade for 1 hour.
3. Wash your hands. Scoop pork mixture and roll it to make balls, one tablespoon a ball.
4. In a pan, heat oil.
5. Deep-fry the balls until golden brown or cooked.
6. Roll on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
7. Scatter sesame seeds over the balls and serve with chili sauce.

HOW TO COOK HOUJI ROU FAN (TURKEY RICE BOWLS)


How To Cook Houji Rou Fan (Turkey Rice Bowls) –Here is another Asian dish. I am not sure if this is Chinese or Taiwanese since these two Nationalities are almost the same and they came from one origin. Houji Rou Fan is a porridge food prepared with turkey or sometimes chicken. This dish is not as expensive as you think because common ingredients are used and they not hard to find these days. In this recipe I am going to share with you, I used two kinds of oil but you can use just one, either olive or sesame oil. And if you feel like you would want chicken instead of using turkey, you can replace it as well to make your Rou Fan more economical. Here is how to cook Houji Rou Fan (Turkey Rice Bowls):



INGREDIENTS
1 lb turkey breast
1 cup rice
2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (toasted)
Salt to taste
A dash of ground pepper
½ cup water

COOKING PROCEDURE
1. Heat pan in a medium high heat.
2. Combine rice, 1 cup broth, a pinch of salt, water. Cover the pan and bring to a boil.
3. When boiling, lower the heat and let it simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
4. In a baking tray, season the turkey with salt, pepper and soy sauce.
5. Heat the oven to 420 degrees.
6. Wrap the turkey with foil and roast for 45-55 minutes or until the turkey is cooked.
7. In a small bowl, combine all the remaining ingrediets with another dash of salt and pepper.
8. When the turkey cools down, scatter it with seasoning mixture.
9.  And serve with rice.
