4. Prepare the Peanut Sauce:

   • Dissolve the peanut sauce mix in hot water, stirring until well combined. Add shrimp paste and sweet soy sauce, mixing until smooth and thick.

5. Assemble the Dish:

   • On a serving plate, arrange the tofu egg pieces. Add steamed bean sprouts, cabbage slices, and tomato wedges around the tofu.

6. Add the Finishing Touches:
