The reddish color, spicy taste, and fresh, fragrant and tender Mapo Tofu is a famous Sichuan cuisine. I believe it is unknown to everyone.

Mapo Tofu

1. Cut tofu into small pieces about one centimeter

2. Heat an appropriate amount of water and add a small amount of salt, add tofu flying water to remove the beany smell, gently lift the tofu to drain the water when the water is slightly boiled.

3. Heat an appropriate amount of oil in a pot, cool to 60% hot, add 2 tablespoons of bean paste on low heat and stir out the red oil.

4. Add green onions, minced ginger garlic, pepper and saute until fragrant, a little dark soy sauce, pepper, two bowls of water, simmer for 5 minutes

5. Put the tofu cubes in, turn to medium-low heat, cover and simmer for about seven or eight minutes, and simmer slowly.

6. Add half a teaspoon of white sugar to make fresh. The tofu is easy to break. Gently push the spoon a few times, and finally pour the starch water to thicken it (the ratio is one spoon of starch, two spoons of water)

7. It's ready to be out of the pot, put it on a plate, sprinkle a spoonful of pepper powder, and an appropriate amount of chopped green onion.
