Braised Cabbage with Frozen Tofu

This comforting Chinese Cabbage and Tofu Stew is a wholesome, flavorful dish that combines tender Chinese cabbage, hearty potatoes, and silky tofu in a savory broth. Fragrant scallions and ginger add depth, while dried wolfberries provide a subtle sweetness. The key to this recipe is the slow simmering process, which melds the flavors together perfectly. First, stir-fry the aromatics to release their fragrance, then cook the cabbage until soft. Potatoes and tofu join the mix, simmering until everything is tender and infused with umami-rich seasonings like soy sauce and chicken essence. A final sprinkle of wolfberries adds a pop of color and nutrition. Easy to prepare yet packed with layers of taste and texture, this stew is a nourishing meal that’s both satisfying and light. Perfect for chilly days or whenever you crave a simple, home-cooked dish bursting with fresh, natural flavors.
