Smooth tofu with Crispy Toppings

Here's my first smooth tofu (beancurd)...
and as usual...the best for my loved one...
I bought organic one...a little bit more expensive but it is healthier than the common one..
Smooth tofu with Crispy Toppings

1 teaspoon of chicken stock
1 teaspoon of oyster sauce
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
1 teaspoon of water
a pinch of sugar

Instructions

3 Steam the tofu and set aside. Place the garlic, shallots, anchovies and dried shrimps on it.
4 Mix the oyster sauce, chicken stock, sesame oil, water and sugar in a sauce pan and simmer.
