5. Add water and garlic. Bring to boil on high heat.

6. Put the stone bowl on high heat to pre-heat. (if you are using it)

7. Add shrimp and squid. Cook for 3 minutes.

8. Taste and season with salt.

9. Add clams and extra soft tofu. Cook for 3-5 minutes.

* Try not to stir too much at this point as tofu is very delicate.
* If you are using live clams, you know they are cooked when the open up.

11. Add an egg just before eating.

Nice dish. Could you please tell what is stone bowl? If I don't get Enochi mushrooms, I think normal mushrooms will be good enough . Isn't it?

I am a non-vegetarian, even then I have my preferences right! :) For various reasons, I am not very fond of Beef and Pork, so I would try out this Spicy Tofu Stew with some chicken instead and yes some great seafood like shrimp, mussels and the like. Thanks for sharing the recipe and I like the fact that the stew is make spicy! :)
