Direcciones
- Stir the stock, oyster-flavored sauce and chili garlic sauce together in a small bowl till well blended.
- For the Stuffing: Stir the grnd pork, shrimp, water chestnuts, egg white, cilantro, sesame oil, salt and pepper together in a medium bowl till well blended.
- For the Dish: Pour sufficient hot water over the mushrooms in a small bowl to cover them completely. Soak till softened, about 20 min. Drain. Throw away the stems and cut the caps into thin strips.
- Cut the tofu in half horizontally to make 2 pcs, each about 3/4-inch thick. Cut each piece into quarters to make a total of 8 pcs. Using a spoon, hollow out the center of each tofu rectangle to make a little box. Pat the tofu 'boxes' dry and dust them with cornstarch to coat them lightly. Fill each with about 1 Tbsp. of the stuffing, mounding it slightly. Dust each piece of stuffed tofu with additional cornstarch to coat them lightly.
- Pour sufficient oil into a 2-qt pan to fill 3 inches. Heat oil over medium-high heat to 350 degrees. Deep-fry the stuffed tofu, a few pcs at a time, till the tofu is golden and the filling is cooked through, 5 to 6 min. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Reserve the oil.
- Heat a wok over high heat till warm. Add in 1 Tbsp. of the reserved oil and swirl to coat the sides. Add in the black mushrooms, bamboo shoots, green onion and carrot. Stir-fry till the carrot is tender-crisp, about 2 min. Add in the sauce and bring to a simmer. Slip the fried tofu into the sauce and stir gently to coat. Transfer the tofu onto a serving platter, stuffing-side up, serve warm.
