Ingredients
- 3 small tubes of egg tofu (around 14oz/400g)
- 1/2 cup tempura flour (see notes)
- 2 tbsps oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- 4 Chilies
- 1/2 cup yard-long beans (sliced into bite-sized pieces)

- 1 1/2 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 tbsp white sugar

Instructions
- Cut the egg tofu package in half with a sharp knife. Gently fold the package open and squeeze both halves to slide the tofu out. Slice the tofu to your preferred thickness.
- Coat the tofu slices with tempura flour. Heat oil in a deep frying pan and fry the tofu until golden and crisp. Remove and set aside.
- Crush garlic and chilies with a mortar and pestle.
- Heat oil in a non-stick wok over medium-high heat. Sauté the garlic-chili mix for about 20 seconds until fragrant.
- Add yard long beans and onions, stir-frying until tender but still crunchy.
- Stir in mushroom sauce, light and dark soy sauce, and white sugar. Mix well.
- Turn off the heat, add the fried tofu and holy basil, and toss everything together. Serve immediately and enjoy!
