drbodkin,
stir fried beef with bean curd
(this was a recipe from a Chinese lady taught to me when I was a newly-wed.)
1/2 lb. beef tenderloin or sirloin
2 cakes fresh bean curd (use the firm tofu, 1 pkg.)
2 scallions, cut into 1 inch length
some oil for high heat, like pnut
1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch dissolved in 2 T water

Marinade for beef
1/2 T dark soysauce
2 tsp cornstarch
1 T sesame oil
1 T sugar

Seasoning sauce
1/2 T dark soysauce
2 T oyster flavor sauce
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp cornstarch

Slice beef across grain, very thin. Place in bowl with marinade for at least 1/2 hr.

Cut bean curd into lengthwise, then slice about 1/2 inch. Place on paper towels to dry slightly.

Heat some oil in a pan over medium. Brown bean curd (let it fry for awhile on one side before turning so it doesn't stick, don't try to turn before you see a little brown up the sides) Remove to a bowl.

Add oil if needed, raise heat and stir fry beef until no longer pink

Return bean curd and add seasoning sauce, simmer for about 5 min.

Add dissolved cornstarch and stir gently until thickened. Sprinkle with scallions.

Serve over rice.

Sounds like a lot of steps, but it is easy when you've got the prep done ahead.
