Yong Tau Foo

Yong Tau Foo is also known as stuffed bean curd. This a Chinese dish, in my opinion they are originated from the Hakka Clan and commonly found in Malaysia and Singapore. As for the true Hakka, the dish is simply served with steamed white rice. Others might serve it with steam rice rolls with sweet sauce. I will post the fish paste ingredients and you can stuff the fish paste with any type of vegetables or bean curd of your choice. Here, I am using bitter gourd, okra, eggplant; red chilies, bean curd sheet and some firm bean curd. As for the soup, I boiled some chicken bones with some soy beans. Soy Beans will enhance the sweetness of the chicken broth.
