Vegetarian Sesame Seed Tofu with French Beans and Basil Recipe


I love the aroma of freshly toasted sesame seed. It has been some time since I last use sesame seed in my dishes. The sesame seed add some bursting aromatic sensation to this tofu dish. For some greens, I put in some French Beans. The basil leaves and aromatic sesame seed gave this dish a fabulous flavour.

Ingredients
Tofu, 1 block, cut into 1 inch cube sizes, deep fried until golden brown
Garlic, 3 cloves, chopped finely
Vegetarian Oyster sauce, 1 table spoon
Soya sauce, 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Basil Leaves, 10 pcs
Sesame seeds, 1 table spoon, toasted till golden brown
French Beans, 5 pcs, cut into 1 inch length
Corn flour and water mixture to thicken the gravy

Heat up wok; add a little olive oil and sauté garlic until golden brown. Add a little water, vegetarian oyster sauce, soya sauce and salt to taste. Fry for a short while. Add French beans and basil leaves. Thicken the gravy with corn flour and water mixture. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seed on top of the dish and serve with steam rice.
