Ingredients
- 420-450 gr firm Tofu, ½ tsp ground Coriander, frying Oil
- 3 Shallots & 4 Kaffir lime leaves-thinly sliced, 2 tsp Salt
- 3 Lemongrass-bruised & sliced big, 1 Green onion-sliced
- 1 tbsp grated Coconut-roasted, 6-7 Bird’s eye chilies
- 6-7 Bay leaves, 1 Egg-beaten, ½ tsp Sugar
- handful of Lemon basil leaves, Banana leaves *
- Toothpicks/skewers
Grind into a paste:
- 2 Shallots, 2 cm Turmeric, 2 small Garlic cloves
- 3 Candlenuts, 2 Red chilies **
Directions
- Sauté the spices paste & sliced shallots until fragrant; set aside. Using a fork, mash the tofu until big lumps are gone. Don’t mash the tofu until it’s too fine; stop mashing when big lumps are gone.
- Mix mashed tofu with grated coconut, sautéed spices, all seasoning, green onion, kaffir lime & basil lime leaves. Put in the egg; combine them well. Divide the tofu mixture evenly into 6 or 7 parts.
- Cut banana leaves into 6 or 7 sheets, ~ 15X27 cm. Put 1 bay leaf, 1 bird’s eye chili & lemongrass slices on the center of each banana leaf sheet. Place the tofu mixture on top of it. Wrap up the leaf tightly to covers all. Pin with small skewers/toothpicks. Steam for ~ 30 minutes.
- * Banana leaf can be substitute with aluminum foil, but the tofu parcel won’t get the same aroma (though it will still taste very good). ** Discard all of the chili seeds & ribs (membranes) if you don’t want the dish to be spicy.
