Mun Tahu (Braised Tofu & Minced Meat) is a popular dish in Indonesia. This food had an influence from the Chinese who immigrated to Indonesia long time ago. The Chinese loves to use oyster & soy sauce; they added new flavouring to Indonesian dish. There are several similarities between Chinese Mapo Tofu & Indonesian Mun Tahu. Mapo tofu is a Chinese tofu dish set in a spicy chili infused oil- & cooked with fermented black beans; while Mun Tahu is not spicy at all. The use of minced beef/pork/chicken mix with shrimp, soy & oyster sauce will give you a milder version of Mapo Tofu. Mun tahu gravy is so delicious & it is also healthy. This dish is really easy & quite fast to prepare..the perfect hot dish to warm you up during rainy or cold days.
