Stuffed Tofu Puff with Minced Pork & Pumpkin


Had some leftover pumpkin in the fridge and made this healthy steamed dish - Stuffed Tofu Puff with Minced Pork & Pumpkin.

My tofu puff is quite small in size. If yours is bigger, probably you will only able to make about 12 pcs and flatter minced pork. Get those soft tofu puff if possible.
