About Yongtaufu

Yongtaufu is a popular dish originating from Hakka Chinese cuisine, now widely enjoyed across Southeast Asia, especially in Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. The dish consists of tofu and various vegetables like okra, bitter melon, and eggplant, often stuffed with a mix of fish paste or minced meat. These stuffed pieces are served cooked, either boiled, steamed, or fried, and paired with a light soup, sweet soy sauce, or chili sauce. Yongtaufu is considered a nutritious choice due to its high protein content from tofu and fish paste, combined with the fiber and vitamins in the vegetables. However, fried versions may be less healthy due to added fats. It’s a versatile dish that caters to diverse dietary preferences, allowing you to mix and match fillings and cooking styles to suit individual nutritional goals.
