1 red chilli, sliced lengthwise 3/4 way ,in half & deseeded
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar

~Method~
1. Heat oil in a small pan. Sautee' onions & garlic till soft.
2. Put in the tauchu and tamarind juice.
3. As soon as the water boils, add the salt, sugar & red chilli.
4. Immerse the deep- fried, triangle tofu into the tofu gravy.
5. Enjoy with hot white rice.
