After sinful feasting during this festive period, it's time to go back to simple meals. Something that warms the heart. It's beancurd and leeks! Yeah, have been very into leeks since last year for god-knows-why. :)
Ingredients:
- chopped garlic
- 2 cubes of beancurd (tau kwa), sliced into bricks.
- leeks chopped into 1 inch length, and half into lengthwise
- abalone sauce (optional) otherwise pinch of salt
Steps:
1. Fried the beancurds into golden brown. For the health-conscious, pan fried instead of deep drying. Dish and set aside.
2. Stir fry the chopped garlic until aromatic. Use medium heat to prevent browning.
3. Add in the leeks and give it a quick fry, till aromatic too.
4. Add in 1 tbsp of hot water and continue frying. This will help to soften the leeks. Add a pinch of salt an continue frying on medium heat.
5. Add in the beancurds and give a good mix.
6. Add in the abalone sauce (optional). I added this for the extra taste. Add in half cup of hot water and continue to fry (braise) for 1 min.
7. Dish to serve.
Happy simple dish. :)
Happy mum
