Vegetarian Sambal Goreng (Fried Chilli) Taukan (Wet bean curd blocks) with Celery



I love cooking with taukan (wet bean curd blocks). It goes down well with many types of ingredients and it is a great replacement for meat. I decided to add in some leeks to give the dish some crunchy green vegetable.

Ingredients
Tau kan, 1 block, cut into small strips
Onions, 1 pc, chopped finely
Celery, 2 stalks, cut into bite sizes
Tamarind juice, from 1 table spoon of tamarind paste
Sugar to taste
Salt to taste
Chilli paste (or powder), 3 table spoons

Sauteed onions and chilli paste in hot oil until fragrant. Add tamarind juice, salt and sugar to taste. Add a little water and bring to a boil. Add taukan and celery. Serve with steamed rice or nasi lemak (coconut milk rice)
