Tofu Recipes Series Episode 6: Mongolian Tofu Recipe
The best thing I ever did with tofu was take traditional tasty recipes such as Mongolian beef, and sub the meat with tofu. Tofu is such a flavour absorber and the texture is always the perfect replacement for meat!
I was soo happy with this recipe because my sister, who is NOT a fan of tofu at all, tried it and her face literally lit up in shock at how much she loved it.
This recipe is roughly based off The Woks of Life website
