Method
4 clear steps
- 1
Peel the century eggs and cut each into 4 wedges. Rubbing a little sesame oil on the knife stops it sticking.
- 2
Cut the tofu into blocks or slices and put it in the middle of a plate. Blanching the tofu first removes the beany taste (optional).
- 3
Mix 15 ml light soy sauce, 2.5 g sugar, 15 ml vinegar, 15 ml sesame oil and 10 ml chili oil into a dressing and pour it over.
- 4
Arrange the egg wedges around the tofu and, if you like, sprinkle with 10 g peanuts, 15 g scallion and the cilantro.
