  • 550g tofu firm
  • 4 garlic cloves - finely chopped
  • 1 leek - finely chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 1/2 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp ginger powder
  • 2 tsp chicken bouillon powder
  • 3 tbsp katakuriko / potato starch
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 80g Zha cai (preserved vegetable) - finely chopped
  • some of panko / bread crumbs or plain flour (T45) to coat meatballs

- For the sauce -

  • 70g water
  • 2 tbsp vinegar
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp chinese shaohsing rice cooking wine or cooking sake
  • 2 tbsp sugar

Instructions

  • 1. In a small frying-pan, heat 1 tbsp sesame oil and cook zha cai until fragrant. Set aside.
  • 2. Wrap the tofu with 2 layers of paper towels and place on a microwave safe plate. Microwave for about 2~3min at 600W. Let it cool to room temperature. Then crush it into tiny pieces, using your hands. Set aside.
  • 3. In a bowl, add the crumbled tofu, all the ingredient A and zha cai (from No.1). Mix together well.

  • 5. Deep-fry the tofu meatballs, turning them occasionally until all sides are light brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  • 6. In a small bowl, add all the sauce ingredients and mix. In a frying-pan, add the sauce and place meatballs and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, stirring occasionally for about a few minutes to evenly coat.
