Add Eggs and Vegetables: Once the aromatics are golden, add the egg and scramble until it’s half-cooked. Incorporate the bean sprouts and long cabbage, cooking until the vegetables are tender and moisture has evaporated. Be careful not to overcook or let it brown too much.

Stuff the Tofu: Carefully cut each piece of tofu in half and scoop out a bit of the insides. Fill each tofu half with the stir-fried vegetable mixture you’ve just prepared.

Prepare the Coating: In a bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and rice flour with a bit of ground pepper, salt, and chicken broth until you achieve a smooth batter. Fold in chopped green onions to add flavor.

Fry the Tofu: Heat oil in a frying pan. Once hot, dip each stuffed tofu half into the batter, ensuring it’s well-coated, and fry until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
