Deep Fried Bean Curd With Prawn & Chicken Paste

What are the ingredients you normally used in stuffed bean curd puffs? Mine should be fish paste stuffing in 'Hakka' style. Besides of that, I have something here which is easier....no fish paste is needed. And is perfect for snack or as well as side dish!

Here's the recipe.

Ingredients :

100gm prawns, roughly chopped

200gm minced chicken thigh meat

1 large onion, diced finely

100gm jicama/water chestnuts, diced finely

salt & pepper to taste

2 tspn beaten egg

2 tspn sesame oil

2 tspn corn flour

handful of cilantro/spring onion, chopped

10 bean curd puffs, halved

Method :

- combine prawns, chicken, onion, jicama, egg, sesame oil, cornflour, salt & pepper and cilantro. stir to mix well.

- push the halved bean curd puff inside out.

- stuff in the filling and then steam for 5 mins.

- next, deep fry the stuffed bean curd untill golden brown.

Finally, serve deep fried stuffed bean curd puffs with chili sauce or sweet plum sauce. The bean curd puff skin should be nice and crispy while the fillings is hot! You can actually smell the strong flavour of cilantro & spring onion when taking the bite..... & a little crunchy & juicy.....Whatever so, just enjoy!
