Recipe: Sambal Tofu

Gone are the days when we only cook non-spicy food to suit BabySumoKids tastebuds. Now they love all types of spicy food, including sambal. Baby D eats sambal with his roti canai, nasi lemak and he also particularly likes sambal tofu that we cook at home.

This is a super easy dish to prepare at home, using store-bought fried tofu and cili boh (or giling) as well as onions and chives. A lovely accompaniment to your meal.
