Soak a small handful of dried shrimps in warm water til they're soft, drain and roughly chop. Plop out a block of silken tofu on a plate, keep it cool in the fridge. Brown up 1/2 lb of ground pork, the shrimp, garlic, ginger, chopped green onions and chili pepper (adjust amounts to your liking). Add half a cup of water, 2 Tablespoons each of soy sauce and oyster sauce and 1 tsp of sesame oil (again, adjust to your liking). Once the pork is done and sauce is the desired consistency, pour it all over the cold tofu, garnish with finely chopped green onions. I love the contrast in texture, especially the way the cold tofu cuts through the hot/savory/spicy sauce. You can leave out the dried shrimp if it's not available. If you want it completely meatless, you can substitute the pork with bean sprouts or bok choy, and the oyster sauce with hoisin (though I hear they make vegetarian oyster sauce). Basically you want to cover the cold silken tofu with a warm blanket of strong flavors.
