Mary

Bean curd is not listed in the ingredients, and I don't know where you buy it or if I should cook it.

Thanks for your comment, I just edited the recipe, and it should be 1 package of bean curd (tofu). You can find tofu in almost all the grocery store in the prepackaged green section beside the vegetarian food. Lightly fry the tofu in this recipe.
