Instructions
-
Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet or wok over medium heat, add a splash of oil and sauté the sliced shallots, red chilies, and tomato until they are soft and fragrant, releasing their delightful aromas into the air.
-
-
Cook Carrots: Add the sliced carrots to the pan and continue to sauté, allowing them to soften slightly. Pour in just enough water to help steam the carrots, covering the skillet and letting them cook until tender, which should take about 5 minutes.
-
Season the Mixture: Once the carrots are tender, season the mixture with your choice of flavor enhancer, a sprinkle of sugar, and a pinch of salt to bring out the natural flavors of the vegetables.
-
Add Mustard Greens and Tofu: Gently fold in the chopped mustard greens, stirring until they begin to wilt slightly. Add the cubed tofu along with the oyster sauce, mixing well to ensure everything is evenly coated. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
-
Incorporate the Eggs: Finally, pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, stirring gently to incorporate them into the mixture. Allow the eggs to cook through, which should take another few minutes. Stir occasionally until the eggs are fully cooked and everything is well combined.
-
Serve: Once cooked, turn off the heat and transfer the sautéed greens, carrots, tofu, and eggs to a serving platter. Garnish with fried shallots for an added crunch and layer of flavor.
-
Enjoy: Serve warm with steamed rice or as a standalone dish. Relish the delightful medley of flavors and textures. Enjoy your meal! 😊
