Adobong Sitaw with Tofu is another version of Adobong Sitaw, this time it is cooked with fried extra firm tofu. Adobong Sitaw is a Filipino vegetable dish. The basic ingredient is string bean, which is locally known as “sitaw”, cooked indobo style. This method of cooking involves soy sauce and vinegar.
Adobong Sitaw with Tofu is considered as a regular everyday dish. This is best eaten with warm white rice. I usually pair this dish with fried fish such as fried bangus or fried galunggong.
Aside from tofu, you can use other ingredients to enhance this recipe. For example, adding sliced pork, chicken, and beef will give you a good result. You can always opt to have the basic Adobong Sitaw if that is what you prefer.
Before I forget, it is highly recommended that you use extra firm tofu for this recipe. This makes a lot of difference and it can make or break your dish.
