Instructions

Prepare the Tofu: In a pan, heat oil over medium heat. Gently fry the silken tofu until golden on all sides, ensuring they remain intact. Once fried, remove from the pan and drain on paper towels. Arrange the tofu pieces on a serving plate.
-
Cook the Minced Meat: In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed. Sauté the chopped garlic until fragrant, being careful not to burn it. Add the minced meat to the pan, cooking until the moisture has evaporated and the meat is well-cooked.
-
Season the Meat: Sprinkle in sugar, salt, and soy sauce. Stir well, adjusting the seasoning to your preference. Taste the mixture to ensure it’s balanced, making any necessary adjustments.
-
Add the Green Onions: Once the meat is seasoned, add the sliced green onions to the pan. Give everything a good stir, allowing the onions to wilt slightly but still retain their vibrant color.
-
Serve: Generously spoon the minced meat mixture over the fried tofu. Present this dish with love and enjoy!
