Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
White Broccoli 1 head
Green Broccoli 1 head
Carrots 3 pieces
Firm Tofu 3 pieces
Garlic 5-6 cloves
Onion 1 large
Raja Rasa Sauce 2 teaspoons
Water 2 cups (adjust to taste)
Salt To taste
Granulated Sugar To taste
Ground Pepper To taste (more for spiciness)
Instant Chicken Bouillon To taste (e.g., Royco)
Cooking Oil For sautéing

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Chop the white and green broccoli into bite-sized pieces. Blanch in hot water for about 10 minutes to soften slightly, then drain.

  2. Slice Other Ingredients: Cut the carrots into thin slices and cube the tofu into larger pieces to prevent breaking during cooking.

  3. Sauté Aromatics: Smash and finely chop the garlic, then thinly slice the onion. In a pan, heat oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant. Add the onion and Raja Rasa sauce, stirring briefly.

  4. Cook the Vegetables: Add the sliced carrots to the pan and sauté until they begin to soften. Gently fold in the tofu.

  5. Add Broth: Pour in the water and bring to a boil. Add the prepared broccoli along with salt, sugar, ground pepper, and instant chicken bouillon.

  6. Taste and Serve: Once the broth reaches a boil, taste for seasoning and check the doneness of the broccoli and carrots. Cook until they are tender yet still crisp to your liking. Serve hot, optionally garnished with crispy fried shallots for extra flavor.
