Yong Tau Foo


Yong Tau Foo is also known as stuffed bean curd. This a Chinese dish, in my opinion they are originated from the Hakka Clan and commonly found in Malaysia and Singapore. As for the true Hakka, the dish is simply served with steamed white rice. Others might serve it with steam rice rolls with sweet sauce. I will post the fish paste ingredients and you can stuff the fish paste with any type of vegetables or bean curd of your choice. Here, I am using bitter gourd, okra, eggplant; red chilies, bean curd sheet and some firm bean curd. As for the soup, I boiled some chicken bones with some soy beans. Soy Beans will enhance the sweetness of the chicken broth.

I'm actually laughing at myself! What have I got into? Trying to make dumplings?? Well, I have seen my late grandmother make them a long time ago. I can remember the ingredients but not the measurements! So, it took me about two hours to come up with the perfect recipes, and I'm glad I did! It was an instant hit! They were all gone, all gobbled up! Make the dough first, add about 480 to 500g of all-purpose flour with 300ml of water. Knead the dough and let it rest. You should be able to make 40 dumplings with the dough. Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Click here for the dumpling wrappers video.
