Oh my goodness this is fabulous! A perfect combination of ingredients and flavors.
This looks like a tremendously good dish! Interesting collection of flavors and textures — sounds really good. Thanks!
I love this egg tofu in egg sauce but I’ve never tried cooking my own. My girl loves it too. Maybe I can give it a try one of these days, thanks for sharing!
I do adore a good silken tofu dish. This one is such a classic.
Lots of healthy protein and I do love that silky egg sauce!
Wow! I love everything about this dish. I’m definitely putting this on our menu for next week. I have never used silk and tofu, and I’ve been wanting to try something that uses it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Just wondering if you would think this dish would freeze well?
Im sure the prawns and peas would survive freezing then thawing, but I haven’t tried that with egg tofu yet.
