My Mapo Tofu step by step
- Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and cook the ground pork over high heat. (cook until the juices run clear)..
- Add the ginger, garlic, doubanjiang, tianmianjiang, and minced leek and stir-fry. (It can burn easily once the paste ingredients are added, so lower the heat to medium)..
- Combine the ● ingredients and add to the pan. Turn the heat to high..
- Once it boils, add the cut silken tofu and boil over high heat (don't stir it too much). Season with pepper..
- If you drain the water from the tofu beforehand, the dish won't become watery..
- Combine the ★ ingredients. Lower the heat to medium and gradually add in the ★ ingredients (※ the tofu will fall apart easily, so stir gently). Let it simmer on high heat for a short time..
- Drizzle in some sesame oil on the surface of the pan to finish. Arrange in a dish and optionally garnish with green onion or the white section of a leek..
