Herbal Beancurd and Peanuts

 
Going 'nuts' cooking various vegetarian dish for the past nine days. Yesterday was the last day of my vegetarian diet.  Vegetarian food aren't that bad, I mean real vegetarian food minus the processed ingredients. There are some more postings on vegetarian dishes coming.
This dish is simple with only 3 main ingredients and the herbs.  It looks a bit dark cos' I think I have put in too much sook tei.  The photos didn't look good cos' I used my new HP to take the shots in the dark.  Was in a rush to pack this dish and forgotten to dish up to take some shots.  This is tasty dish.
