Chilled tofu with century egg and oyster sauce

Sis and I are crazy about tofu dish, simply because its so easy to cook and taste delicious! The other day, we went to this snack joint in Pyramid..I think it was Shilin. They had this dish on the menu. Being curious, sis ordered the dish and it was totally worth it...well not to say it was very cheap, but we kinda 'bought' ourself another new idea to add to our dinner menu :D

We attempted to recreate the dish with our own version and it tasted quite good.


Chilled tofu with century egg and oyster sauce
1 tube of smooth tofu (not the japanese tofu)
1 century egg
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp sugar

about 3-5 tbsp of water, depending on how think you'd like the sauce to be

spring onion for garnishing

1. Prepare the sauce. Mix the oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar and water together. Heat them up on a saucepan until desired thickness and taste.

2. Slice the chilled tofu and arrange them on a plate.

3. Roughly chop the century eggs and garnish them on the tofu. Pour the sauce on top of this.

4. Garnish with spring onion and serve.
