Delicious Tofu Soup

A delicate soup of soft tofu and tomato simmered with garlic and leftover shrimp, thickened lightly with starch for a smooth, savory, home-style bowl.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    Wash the Shanshui tofu clean.

  2. 2
    Step image

    Cut into small pieces. The tofu is very soft and easy to break, so be careful when cutting.

    Step image

    Cut the tomato into small pieces.

    Remove the shells from the leftover shrimp from lunch and set aside.

  5. 5
    Step image

    Slice the garlic.

  6. 6
    Step image

    Beat the eggs until smooth.

  7. 7
    Step image

    Take a spoonful of starch and mix it with half a bowl of water.

  8. 8
    Step image

    Add oil to the pan, and after the oil is hot, add the garlic slices and stir-fry.

  9. 9
    Step image

    Add the tomato pieces and stir-fry for two minutes.

  10. 10
    Step image

    Add an appropriate amount of water, usually a few bowls of water depending on how many people are drinking.

  11. 11
    Step image

    After the water boils, cook for one minute, then add the tofu.

  12. 12
    Step image

    After boiling, add the starch water.

  13. 13
    Step image

    After bringing it to a boil, pour in the beaten eggs. Eggs mixed with starch water are less likely to break apart when cooked, and the tofu absorbs the flavor more easily.

    After boiling, add the shrimp.

  15. 15
    Step image

    Add an appropriate amount of salt and sesame oil, serve in a bowl, and start drinking!
