Crunchy tofu with prawn patty @ cheung chau's 甘永泰魚蛋

Again, saw pictures of this crunchy tofu and the lovely white filling inside, I just had to try it.
The filling inside is grounded de-gutted prawn, hence it is spotless.


The exterior of it, looks similar to smelly tofu, and the surface is very interesting, a bit like loofah/bamboo pith.
This texture is done by cutting the tofu puffs and turning it inside out, putting the grounded prawn paste inside, placing them on the skewers and then deep fried.
There were alot of reviews that said it was tasteless, but as I didnt eat anything with strong taste before, it tasted really nice.
The outside is extremely crunchy, then when you bite into the part near the prawn, it is slightly chewy, and the into the prawn patty which is then softer.
It costs $10 per stick, and they wrap a tissue around it, my fingers were kept nice and clean, the tofu was not greasy at all.

I think without sauce, it tastes good, but if there was lemon or vinegar to put on it, it would taste much nicer.
