The husband loves eggs as well as anything with eggs so naturally he’d adore egg tofu too. In order to make this an even more eggy-tasting dish, I included a beaten egg into the minced meat mixture for a slightly gooey texture which really complemented the ‘drier’ egg tofu and the rice congee that I cooked. And although the whole dish wasn’t saucy wet, the minced meat was moist and nicely seasoned and the pan-fried egg tofu was equally tasty on their own. Enjoy!
