I discovered this delicious dish in the Mekong delta in southern Vietnam while staying with Yen’s family. It is quite easy to make and a very nice side dish with rice and some vegetables.
What you need:
- 2-3 stems of fresh lemongrass
- 1 block of fried tofu
- salt, sugar, vegetable seasoning, water
Step by Step:
- wash the lemongrass and slice very thinly so you end up with lots of rings
- cut the block of fried tofu in medium sized flat peices
- heat up tofu in wok with some water
- add salt, sugar, vegetable seasoning – this is a bit up to you – if somebody in Vietnam serves this to you it will have MSG in it ;-((
- add lemongrass
- fry until lemongrass start to become golden brown on thinner pieces
- Voila!
