Today I will share a simple home-cooked dish of tofu egg custard, also known as egg hugging tofu. As the name suggests, the tofu is surrounded by egg custard, and I don't know if any of my friends agree with such an introduction.

2. Seasonings include salt, oil, light soy sauce, braised soy sauce, corn starch, chicken essence;

Steps:

1. Wash the tender tofu and cut it into large and small pieces;

2. Beat the eggs in a bowl, put a pinch of salt, and put the tofu in the bowl; (If you are worried that the eggs are too old, you can add a quarter of the water to the mixed egg mixture, and then add the tofu)

5. In a small half bowl of water, add three spoons of light soy sauce, a little chicken essence and mix thoroughly, and then add a spoonful of cornstarch to make water starch;

6. Wash the mushrooms, cut them into cubes and set aside;

Add a small half bowl of water and boil for about 3 minutes;

9. Finally, pour in the prepared sauce and bring to a boil over high heat;
