Here's another bean curd recipe which tastes actually a lot like
chicken...which is probably why I don't like it that much...but anyway, I've
had good responses from other people. I know I stole the recipe from
somewhere but I'm not sure whe

1 large sheet of bean curd skin
1/2 cup or so veggie stock
1 tsp salt
1tsp sugar
1 tsp sesame oil

oil for deep frying

Put all ingredients except bean curd into a small saucepan and bring to a
boil. Let cool.

soak the bean curd until it's pliable, put it in the bottom of a steamer
(hanging over the edge) and ladle some of the broth over the first layer.
Fold the edges of the bean curd into the center and ladle more broth on
that. Fold again, ladle again until the bean curd is fairly tightly folded.
Steam for 10-15 mins. Roll the parcel up tightly and deep fry till golden
brown.

Serve with lemon sauce. (lemon juice, water, sugar, salt and thickened with
cornstarch)

Deep frying is one of the most unhealthy ways of cooking things. If the
pics I've seen of certain afv regulars are any indication of how plump
the rest are, this group needs more focus on healthy recipes. Please
consider this in the future before posting.

I think I used to get something like this at a chinese restaurant SF
many years ago. Great stuff. Next time I can find some bean curd skins
I'll give it ago. Thanks.

Let me educate us. Deep fry = long term death. Not a good thing;
You can deep fry the healthiest foods, and you have a deadly combination/

And when exactly did I imply that it was a healthy recipe?

Thank you for the education, but I was already aware that fried foods are
unhealthy if eaten in large amounts. Hence the beauty of eating in
moderation.
