Tofu and Egg Plant in Sweet and Spicy Sauce.











2 cups sliced fried tofu (also see: "how to deep fry tofu" if unable to purchase Fried Tofu)
2 Tbsp Thai sweet, sour, and spicy sauce
2 Tbsp black bean and garlic sauce
½ tsp sesame oil
4 basil sprigs, pinch off and use only leave
2 cloves of crushed garlic
1 tsp cooking oil

Direction:
To deep fry egg plant: In a frying pan or wok, heat 2 cups of cooking oil, then carefully add sliced egg plant. Cook for about 5 minutes. Remove and place on paper towel to absorb excess oil. Set aside.

In a separate pan/wok, heat oil and add garlic. Stir until golden brown, and then add tofu and the rest of ingredients. Stir occasionally for about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat then serve with steamed white rice.

Serving: 2
