Hi All... Welcome to my blog.
How are you. Hope spending your day peacefully. Thanks for stopping by and reading me again.
Its a yet another Sunday and I am back with my Sunday special creation - The Chili Garlic Tofu.
So this time I was thinking I should try some other cuisine than Indian. My family loves Chinese food and I wanted to try something with Tofu. Tofu is widely used in Asian cousins so I thought I will prepare something that gives the taste of Chinese food or I must say Indi Chinese food and health benefits of Tofu.
Tofu is a good source of protein for vegetarians and as we are vegetarians, it is definitely a good ingredient to experiment with.
Lets begin with the recipe.
