Preparation

• Continue cooking then add the celery when the carrot is cooked through, followed by the mushroom and green onions.
• When all veggies are already cooked, pour the sauce mixture. Continue cooking while stirring to have a smooth consistency. Cook until the sauce thickens. Transfer the sauce to a bowl and set aside.
• In the meantime cook the tofu. If you have sizzling plate, heat the plate in the stove until very hot that droplets of water will disappear in an instant.
• Add some oil and cook the tofu by slightly browning, first on one side then on the underside. Then pour the sauce to create that wonderful sizzling-smoking effect.
