Silken Tofu, Spinach, and Shimeji in Oyster Sauce
Don’t you think this dish can actually be served in a nice restaurant? I just love looking at how the blanched spinach make a nest for the quick braised silken tofu and shimeji mushrooms in oyster sauce, so pretty. This dish is also perfect for entertaining guests in your home, they are so easy to prepare and make (and tasty of course). As long as you don’t let them know, they will think you spend hours and hours, and will be in awe at your cooking skill. It will be our little secret, okay? ♥
