Steps 1: Preparation Tofu
First of all, we need to cut the tofu into small pieces, and then blanch it in boiling water to remove the soy flavor. Then, fish out the tofu cubes and set aside to cool.
Step 2: Prepare green onion, ginger and garlic

Heat the pan, pour in the right amount of oil, then add the chopped green onion, ginger and garlic and sauté to get the flavor.

Then, add salt, soy sauce and chicken essence, and stir-fry well.
Step 7: Add the egg mixture
Finally, pour the beaten egg mixture into the pan and gently mix well with chopsticks.
Step 8: Thickening
If you think the sauce is too juicy, you can add an appropriate amount of water starch to thicken the sauce, and then stir-fry evenly.
Step 9: Remove from the pan
Finally, put the hot tofu on a plate and sprinkle with the appropriate amount of chopped green onions.
Tips:
1. Blanching tofu should not be too long, otherwise it will affect the texture of the tofu.
2. Stir frying onion, ginger and garlic should not be too long, otherwise it will be paste.
3. When adding the egg, use chopsticks to stir gently to avoid scrambling the tofu.
4. When thickening the sauce, the amount of water starch should be moderate, otherwise it will affect the taste.
