This is an authentic Taiwanese side dish my vegetarian mother prepares. Tastes great with rice and other vegetables. Note: This is not a saucy dish.

This recipe was absolutely delicious! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce was flavorful and addictive. I will definitely be making this again soon.
