...Welcome Catherine, I will come and visit you :-)<br /><br />@ Milliemirepoix, I did different version, with chlli, with garlic and chilli (breaking the Buddhist tradition), with olive oil, garlic and oregano (Italian style) but in the end I always go back to the super basic original recipe. Scrambled eggs may not be necessary, as tofu is all protein and a good egg substitute, I would go for carbo, like rice or noodles.Alessandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12616072198034545392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210621398631776410.post-12564928530890807852011-12-13T20:59:32.899+13:002011-12-13T20:59:32.899+13:00Interesting tidbit about the old tradition of not ...Interesting tidbit about the old tradition of not eating alliums either, learn something new every day! I actually nearly made this tonight but didn't have enough tomato... next time!

My maternal family who are Hainanese, cook it a little different from my paternal side, who are Hokkien. Then there's my stepmother's Cantonese style dishes. And tofu is featured in one way/form or the other. I love it!<br /><br />My mum only uses Kikoman as well. But I'm happy with Lee Kum Kee.

It adds "koku" (if you know this Japanese meaning... I don't know how to translate it, maybe savory?). I should try cooking this dish!
