Stir-fried Long Beans with Minced Tofu & Waxed Meat

Ingredients
500 gram long beans, julienned
2 pieces waxed meat
2 big onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 piece soft white tofu, minced
1/4 cup water
salt & pepper to taste
2 tablespoon oil
  1. Boil water in a wok to blanch the waxed meat for 30 seconds and then steam the meat for 20 minutes over high heat.
  2. After 20 minutes, remove the waxed meat from the wok and clean it thoroughly. Slice the wax meat to 4 – 5mm thickness when cool.
  3. On the clean wok, saute the chopped garlic till fragrant and add in the onion and long beans. Continue to saute for 1 minute before adding in the minced tofu. Add in water and continue to saute for another 2 minutes.
  4. Add in the waxed meat. As it is already cooked we do not have to stir-fry any longer. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. 
  5. The mixture of tofu and essence of long beans and onion will form a white sweet gravy that goes perfectly with steamed rice. No thickener required.
