Ingredients:

For pan-frying tofu
1/2 cup Cooking Oil
1 lb. Firm Tofu
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tbsp. Corn Starch
For braising tofu
1 tsp. Cooking Oil
2 Stalks Green Onions, Cut Into 1/2 Inch Pieces.
2 Slices Ginger, Sliced
1 cup Pork Bone Soup
2 oz. Winter Bamboo Shoot
3 oz. King Wah Ham
2 oz. Shiitake Mushrooms
1 tsp. Salt
1 tbsp. Shaoxing Wine
2 oz. Napa cabbage

Directions:

Cut the tofu into squares, about 1/2-inch thick.

Slice the mushrooms, ham, and winter bamboo shoots.

Locate the stem of the napa cabbage. With a chef's knife, cut in half lengthwise, all the way through the core. Then, cut each half into 3 pieces.

Sprinkle some salt and cornstarch on the tofu, and pan-fry it until one side is golden brown. Take it out and rain the oil.

In the pan over medium-high heat, add oil, scallions, and ginger slices and saute until fragrant.

Add pork bone soup, winter bamboo shoots, ham, mushrooms, salt, Shaoxing cooking wine, and cabbage, and simmer for 3-5 minutes over medium heat to make it taste delicious.

Enjoy!
