Soft Tofu, Mince and Peas is a simple dish of tofu, minced meat, mushrooms and vegetables in a starchy egg gravy. I love ordering this dish back in those days when I was still in Malaysia, it was my go to side dish and almost had this everyday. Since then I never had one of them until now when it crossed my mind as I reminisce the old days and remember my favourite dishes I had in Malaysia.

Making this here in New Zealand is quite tricky, at least to me as the key ingredient egg tofu has proved to be elusive, I know its available as I had seen them before but when you needed it most it is the time where it suddenly disappears. So for our recipe today instead of using it I had used a similar tofu but in the form of a block, its less silky but this is the next best thing there is.
