Black Pepper Tofu
Ingredients
  • 800g firm tofu (such as Tau Kwa brand)
  • vegetable oil for frying
  • cornflour to dust the tofu
  • 150g butter
  • 12 small shallots (350g in total), thinly sliced
  • 8 fresh red chillies (fairly mild ones), thinly sliced
  • 12 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh root ginger
  • 3 tbsp sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
  • 3 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 4 tsp dark soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp caster sugar
  • 5 tbsp coarsely crushed black
  • peppercorns (use a pestle and mortar or a spice grinder)
  • 16 small and thin spring onions, cut into 3cm segments
  • You will definitely surprise yourself with this one. It is an extremely delicious dish that’s quick and straightforward to make, but looks as if it’s been prepared at a top Chinese restaurant. It is fiery, both from the chillies and the black pepper; you can moderate this by reducing their quantity a little. However, the whole point is spiciness so don’t go too far.
