Ingredients
  

  • 1 block 14 ounces soft tofu
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Start by gently draining the soft tofu and cutting it into bite-sized cubes. Place the tofu in a shallow serving dish.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set but still creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Carefully pour the egg sauce over the tofu cubes in the serving dish.
  6. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve warm.
