1. 1

   Prepare the Tofu. Gently blanch the silken tofu in hot water for 2-3 minutes to firm it up slightly and remove any raw taste. Carefully remove and drain.

   Sauté Aromatics. Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and julienned ginger, stir-fry until fragrant.

3. 3

   Add Preserved Turnip and Edamame. Add finely diced preserved turnip and shelled edamame to the pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.

4. 4

   Braise the Tofu. Gently add the blanched tofu cubes to the pan. Pour in vegetable broth, vegetarian oyster sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper. Bring to a simmer.

5. 5

   Thicken the Sauce. Stir the cornstarch slurry and slowly add it to the simmering sauce, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve. Carefully transfer the braised tofu to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped spring onion and serve immediately with steamed white rice.
