Hi Ann, is this recipe too much for a family of 3? Do I scale down by half? Thanks
Hi Ai Li, Yes, you can cook half of this recipe. In fact this dish can be kept for 3 days in the fridge.
Thank you!
This sounds so yummy!
Comfort food for north Asians. 😉
Laura: This is worth trying 🙂
Oh, reads very easy, I will try – provided I find the right ingredients.
Pigpigscorner: I agree that this is good to go with rice and easy to prepare too.
Love red bean sauce! This is perfect with rice.

I miss Singapore and its flavors … oh, wish I could go back! thank you for bringing the taste of the local cuisine, I love it!
I am glad you're going to try this recipe. 🙂
Never cook this before. Will try out when coming 9th day vegetarian festive (九皇爷诞).
罗汉斋is only for CNY? I thought we can eat it any time of the year @_@
Usually I will cook 罗汉斋 on the 1st day of CNY, no other day in a whole year, hehehe. I think when I run out of idea what to cook, this will denitely my choice.
Come and share with me..:D
Wow, I like this dish!!! too bad my husband doesn't like the taste of Nan Ru so I can't cook dishes with it.
SIS: Let me find you a napkin…
U always making me drooling, hehe…
Tracie & Peachkins: Thank you!
I love soup and mushroom. I think I'm going to love this!
I like this one!! somehow it reminds me of chinese new year.. where grandma cooks vege and rice for breakfast! the only time I would actually eat rice as breakfast..
Slywia: I think you can get these ingredients in Chinatown. I'm sure your husband will love it 😀
Ashley: My family likes more sauce to go with rice. Can add less water (300ml) if you don't like watery.
Christine: Thank you 😀
I would love to try this… I hope I can find the ingreadients here.

Mock abalone is a vegetarian and health food. It is generally made from wheat gluten and is thus high in protein.
Very interesting and delicious sounding….never had mock abalone. Lots of great flavors here!
Oh! Hurry up! Get me a bowl of rice to go with this dish. Ump…Yummy!!!!
