酿豆腐 Deep Fried Tofu

星期天，我们店铺休假。早上，爸爸把我带到茨厂街逛。

每逢我回马，爸一定带我到茨厂街，是来怀旧吧。

茨厂街内有几个食档是我们的最爱。

今早，我建议吃中华巷里著名的酿豆腐。

酿豆腐的特色是软软白豆腐内的美味肉酱。

经在油中快快煎一煎，豆腐和肉酱更是香喷喷和可口。

我本还以为酿豆腐是马来西亚华人的美食，在其他国家找不到。

上网一查，才知道它属客家人的菜肴，源自中国。

我家是客家人，难怪爱吃酿豆腐 !

Since today is Sunday, which is our day off for our family business, my father took me to Petaling Street in the morning. Petaling Street is also referred as Chinatown by tourists. We spent lots of times there during our childhood, hence my father likes to take me there when I come home.

There are a few food stalls in Petaling Street are our favourites. This morning, I suggested to have our breakfast at the famous deep fried tofu stall in a small lane in Petaling Street.

This type of deep fried tofu is quite special. The tofu is stuffed with very tasty pork mince paste. We also called this type of tofu, Yoong Tau Foo. I always thought that Yoong Tau Foo was a Malaysian Chinese’s specialty and I won’t be able to find it anywhere else. Not only till today after I googled it online, I realised it was originated from Hakka people (one ethic group amongst Chinese) in China. My family is Hakka origin and no wonder we love Yoong Tau Foo !

他们好好生意，做得没停过手。

The business of the Yoong Tau Foo stall was really good !

豆腐，鱼丸，辣椒等在锅内大火煎炸一下。

Tofu, fish balls, chillies etc were quickly deep fried in these huge woks before serving.

有人忙煎，有人忙将肉酱塞进豆腐内。

Workers were very busy with stuffing the special pork mince paste into tofu.
