I made a tofu dish that's so bad that I had to eat it all by myself instead of sharing it with my cousins

I initially made a tofu dish that I've been doing for long which is called "Tokwa't Mayonnaise" which is basically a tofu with mayonnaise, I did the initial steps:

1. Deep fry tofu until golden brown
2. Saute Onions
3. Add chili
4. Add the golden browned tofu
5. Add mayonnaise mixed with oyster sauce
6. Serve

It should've been good, but the problem was the tofu didn't go golden brown as I expected, it just turned pale brown, before I knew it the tofu already felt like a brick, so I had to do something immediately, I searched on google how to make the tofu softer, I found a site saying I needed to simmer, but as a bum newbie I am I didn't think about how it would remove the mayonnaise flavor, after I took it off the simmer it became softer but after refrying and adding mayonnaise it tasted I'm eating a sock with mayonnaise, I panicked and added egg and oyster sauce hoping it would somehow fix the taste. It didn't, it tasted worse than ever, I don't have anything else to add in it, I didn't know what to do so ultimately I told my cousin the food taste so bad that I had to eat it by myself without sharing.
