  • I am horrible at translating my recipes but I will try.

    Here is a recipe for a chicken and tofu "hot pot".

    chicken breast sliced into 1/8 " chunks
    2 cups of fresh chicken broth ( you can use veggie as well)
    carrot
    bok choy
    mushrooms
    one egg
    firm tofu

    In a frypan or wok heat up enough oil to coat pan (about 1/4 cup)
    slice tofu into squares then half to form triangles
    when oil is hot enough ( if it is too cold the tufo will absorb the oil)
    fry tofu until brown on all sides
    drain well on paper towels

    slice, carrots and bok choy in long 1/8 " peices ( thin, but not slivered)
    slice any type of mushroom you like as well as other veggies ( any kind works)
    heat in the stock until tender.
    In a bowl beat the one egg and drizzle it into the stock and veggies ( it should form ribbins and thicken the stock somewhat.
    Add cooked chicken and tofu let simmer a few minutes.
    salt and pepper to taste

    you can add soy sauce, or a few drops of sesame seed oil.

    Becareful of store bought stock. Try to get the ones that are not canned and look for reduced sodium and fat free.

    I have experimented with this recipe by stirfying the veggies first and it was delicious.


    This recipe originally used celophane noodles as well. I still use them on ocassion. But I find it still tasty without them.
  • I only like tofu in two ways:
    1. in my smoothies, with berries and stevia
    2. in my tomato bisque, cooked in the soup and then blended to a creamy consistency
  • The way I like it,is to see it in the bin,I would rather eat tripe.
    Plus being hypothyroid soya is a no no.
