Day 182/365 of eating cheap to pay off my uni loan 🌿🌻

Another day another tofu 🌿🤍 I have made so many versions of tofu eggs across Vietnam and Thailand. Now that I'm in Malaysia I wanted to make a Malaysian inspired one. Squid is my favourite seafood but I haven't bought it in over a year because it's always so expensive. Then I spotted it for a cheaper price on PandaMart and I was so happy 😭 Had some leftover tofu too so here we are. Sambal Tofu Sotong Eggs 🌿✨ Ingredients 1.
