Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice tofu into 1.5 cm pieces and pat dry; cut eggplant into long half-moons.

  2. 2

    Pan-sear tofu in oil for 3 minutes per side until golden, then set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same pan, stir-fry onion and eggplant for 2 minutes to soften.

  4. 4

    Add soy sauce, chili flakes, garlic, and water; return tofu and braise on medium-low for 8 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add green onion and simmer 2 more minutes, then rest off heat for 1 minute before serving.

Tips

Searing tofu first helps prevent breakage during braising.
Avoid overcooking eggplant; keep its braising time within the last 10 minutes.
