Dear Readers, it’s been some time since we featured some home cooked food, so with our apoligizes, here comes this article!

Home Cooked Taiwanese Food

One of my favorite all-time dishes, this is the famous mapo tofu cooked to perfection by Hui-chen.

I love the colors in this dish!  You’re looking at fried eggplant with a wonderful cold sesame sauce, of the type normally found on the southeast Asian dish called cold noodles.  The sauce contains:

  1. sesame sauce (store bought basic sauce to begin with)
  2. soy sauce
  3. sugar
  4. small amount of sesame oil
  5. water

This last dish is pan fried chicken, egg and okra.  This dish was literally fantastic!

Now, the recap photos:

      And I thought my dinner was yummy, man I am sending Noot to Taiwan for some lessons :)

      Great pictures, the food jumps off the plates at you. The egg plant dish looked delicious. The tofu looked a real winner. And the chicken Mmmm.

      Thanks MJ, thanks a lot mate. I’m hungry again!

      The food looks delicious, MJ, but I hope you had rice to go along with that mapo tofu!

      Looks delicious! Mapo tofu is one of my all time favorite foods. I’m not a big fan of eggplant though. ;) You are so lucky to have a resident chef at home!

      Sandy » i’ll tell you a secret about me: one of my hobbies it to try mapo tofu whenever i travel. i’ve had it in many countries but i must tell you that Taiwan has the best i’ve ever tasted. i’m lucky to have Hui-chen for so many different reasons! thanks.
