CP - it's OK to miss your mommy so don't be sad. ;)
I'm going to try this recipe, but with little changes. I'm going to fry the tofu instead of steaming... =P I prefer fried tofu....
Each time I visit Rasa Malaysia, I am amazed by your talent--in cooking, photography, and writing! Thanks for the trip back to my parents' house. This recipe is a keeper!
omg, i am drooling looking at your steamed beancurd cause it's always my favourite... yummy!
Fabulous idea ... I guess a little similar to mapo dofu? Wish I could get better tofu here in Melbourne, but in any case, it's a recipe that's going on to my to-do list. Thank you.
Great! I have some tofu leftover from making tofu and leeks. It's firm tofu though, but I guess that works too, if I fry them. Maybe I'd do a stir-fried tofu with the rest of your suggested ingredients! Thanks!
I like the tofu fresh, without steaming. One way to eat it is to wash the tofu and put it into the fridge for a short while and when the toppings are laid on top, you get a nice juxtaposition of hot and cold. I like it this way but I know many don't.
But tofu cooked any way is everyone's favorite! :)
In fact, I've just bought ingredients for this dish few days ago. Have not cook it though. Will do so soon, then post, eat and be merry!
No Kitchen :'( and I miss my mommy too...
Chris - Great idea. The recipe will work very well with fried tofu, just remember to cut them into smaller pieces and deep fry them. Remember, photos for "User Submissions." :P
PE - I am an OK cook and I am still learning about food photography (hopefully I will get my dream digital SLR camera soon!) so thanks for your compliment. About writing, I am really not so sure; I think that's my weakest link, I simply can't write. I wish someone would write this blog for me so I can just focus on cooking and taking pictures? Any volunteers??? ;)
Meiyen - yes the sauce and steamed rice...that's one meal for me.
Anonymous - I believe Melbourne has a lot of Asian markets. You should be able to find them there.
Simcooks - sounds like a good idea.
Bayi - I know the Japanese eat a lot of cold tofu.
Tigerfish - happy cooking and I guess I will see your creation on your site?
Unkaleong - well, fly back to see your mommy then...Air Asia! ;)

Nowadays many people use bottled oyster sauce over the tofu for convenience! :(
You are torturing me...
I can eat this every day. Looks delish.
I was posting a tofu post today and realise RM, Simcooks, Melting Wok all have their fav tofu recipes.
I miss this dish. I will use a chopsticks to pick the meat piece by piece. hehe...
