I love tofu/bean curd. It's so versatile that there's so many things you can cook with it. This is another convenient and simple dish that needs to be accompanied with a bowl of hot steamed rice. The succulent minced pork combines with the tasty sweet gravy is truly appetising.
Why not add this lovely dish in your next home-cooked dinner!
Feel free to substitute minced pork with minced chicken if you like. Please adjust the measurement below according to your preference.
