Friends, during our last month's visit to Singapore, we stayed in the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, which is a five star hotel.
During lunch time my friends went looking for a Chinese Vegetarian Restaurant in the hotel. I was not keen to have anything, as I do not feel comfortable eating in a Chinese restaurant. One of the items they ordered was salt pepper tofu..
The dish cost a fortune in that hotel. Here is the recipe for all my friends. Enjoy.

SALT AND PEPPER TOFU

Ingredients.

Marinate:
3 firm tofu cut into cubes
1 tsp plain flour
1 tsp corn flour
1 tsp soy sauce
¼ tsp white pepper powder
½ tsp garlic powder
Little salt
Oil for frying

2 tsp oil
1 big fresh red chillie, seeded and cut fine
2 pips of garlic chopped very fine
1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
¼ tsp grated fresh ginger
2 tsp sliced scallions
Little soy sauce

Method:
Marinate the tofu in the above ingredients for 20 minutes.
Do not use any water.
Heat oil in a pan, shallow fry the tofu until golden.
Remove and keep aside.

Heat 2 tsp of oil in a pan, add in the chopped garlic.
Sauté well, add in the ginger, chopped red chillie,
Add in the fried tofu, the black pepper powder,
Soy sauce and the scallions.
