Tofu Omelette with Peanut Sauce

In my home country, Indonesia, we call this dish as Tahu Bumbu. They are usually sold by small vendors along the side of the road in the evening until midnight. Originally the vegetables that go along with this dish are fresh bean sprout and Indonesian cucumber pickles, but here, I replaced them with vegetables that I had in my fridge and stir fry them.

Soft Egg Omelet and Komatsuna Spinach with Thickened Chinese Style Sauce Soft Egg Omelet and Komatsuna Spinach with Thickened Chinese Style Sauce
I don't like the bitterness of komatsuna spinach... I was inspired by "poohtomo-san"'s recipe Simple Green Vegetables with Egg White Thick Sauce.※ I changed the quantity of ingredients on November 2.The key to this recipe is the very soft omelet!Pour in the beaten eggs into a very hot frying pan and stir quickly 3 or 4 times. Once the edge of the omelet is set transfer onto the fried komatsuna spinach!The mild flavour of the soft omelet kills the bitterness of komasuna spinach. Your children will love this too! (I experienced this personally.) Recipe by Hichan cookpad.japan -
Asian Inspired Peanut Sauce Asian Inspired Peanut Sauce
I have tried a few sauces that were okay, but this sauce, inspired by the Kitchen, is my favorite. It is very simple to make, but has such spectacular flavor.Depending upon your desired consistency, add more or less water. For our dish, a half cup was perfect. If you want to use as a salad dressing, use more water. We used ours over noodles/spaghetti, with some chicken. Wow!You will be surprised at how good this sauce is. Just a few simple ingredients.Enjoy! J.A.B. -
