Stir Fried Egg-tofu with Soybean Paste (Telur-Tahu Bumbu Tauco)


To eat with crunchy tempeh-anchovy, I made this stir fried egg-tofu with soybean paste. I intentionally added more water to it, so that our meal is not too "dry".

Ingredients:
- 6 eggs, boil and peel
- 4 tofu, cut into small pieces, fry until half cooked
- 4 Tbsp soybean paste
- 4cm of ginger, cut into 4 and crack it with pestle (Indonesian-keprek dengan ulekan)
- 6 cloves garlic, slice thinly
- 5 cloves small red onion, slice thinly
- 2 Tbsp sweet soy sauce
- sugar
- oil for frying
- water (as much as you like)

In a pan, saute garlic and onion with a little bit of oil for 1-2 minutes. Add ginger, continue to saute for another 1 minutes. Add the soybeans paste and sweet soy sauce, mix it well. Add the water. Add eggs and fried tofu. Stir it and taste it, adjust the taste with sugar. Continue to boil until cooked.

Note: normally it is already salty enough from the soybean paste. However if you think it is not salty enough, you may add some salt. Keep it in fridge and eat it for the next day is better than eat it on the same day as you cooked, because all the spice will penetrate to the eggs and make them brownish, harder and tastier.
