Eggplant ( also chopped into even pieces, can be a little bigger than potato piece).
chopped bell pepper. Chopped garlic, oil, light soy sauce, sugar, starch, water, salt.

4. Fried potato and eggplant in the plate and put aside.

I used to dislike egg tofu, but now I like it. This dish actually includes 3 ways to cook egg tofu. We also call egg tofu Japanese tofu.
First, cut egg tofu into even-sized pieces. Coat them with corn starch, and fry them in oil in hot pan till both side turn golden brown.
After being fried, Egg tofu is crunchy outside but soft inside. It’s a super easy way to cook egg tofu but still yummy.
If you think it’s too easy, and you want to add some vegetables, please move on to the next procedure.
Prepare carrot, shiitake, celery. And cut them into small pieces.
Heat some oil in the pan. First stirfry carrot, then add in shiitake, and celery at last. Also add in some oil sauce with a little water. Keep stir frying. Before the sauce is almost dry, add in fried egg tofu. Quick stir fry all together, and take them out into the plate.
This is yummy stir fry egg tofu with vegetables.

Beat two eggs in a bowl, add in a little salt and mix well. Heat a little oil in the pan. Pour egg in it. Before egg gets solidify, put stir fried egg tofu and vegetables on the egg. Once egg at the bottom gets solidify, take them out.
Actually, I didn’t expect this dish will taste so good. And it’s very simple.
1. Put ladyfingers in boiling water for 2 minutes. Then take them out, remove two ends off and cut them into small pieces.
2. Cut pork into thin slice. Heat some oil in the pan. Stir fry pork till it gets a little golden brown.
3. Add in ladyfinger, a little light soy sauce and salt. Quick stir fry for another minute or two. And it’s done.
As to pork, I recommend pork belly, because it contains fat, which makes it taste better.
Put Spinach in boiling water for several seconds. Then take them out and chopped into granules.
Put spinach in a large bowl. Beat in a large egg, half a small bowl of flour, some water, 1 tsp baking soda, some salt and black pepper powder. Mix them well.
Heat a little oil in the pan. Put a spoonful of batter in the pan. When the down side’s edge becomes a little golden, flip it over. And fry the other side for a while.
Actually I don’t like ladyfinger very much. Because it is sticky inside, which tastes a bit weird to me. But I like ladyfinger omelet.
Two ladyfingers removed off two ends and put into boiling water for 1-2 minutes. Put some salt in the water.
Beat 3 small eggs in a bowl.
Heat a little oil in the pan. Pour the egg in and spread one layer in the pan. When egg starts to solidify, put one ladyfinger at one end of the pan. Then roll the egg with ladyfinger in it to the other end of the pan.
Pour egg into the pan. One ladyfinger put next to the omelet already made. Then roll them together to the other end.
Repeat the procedure above till all egg used up.
It will become a big omelet and cut it into small pieces.
