Mapo Tofu (improved Version)
1.
Prepare all the seasonings, wash and drain the tofu, cut into nine pieces of the same size. For tofu, I choose southern tofu, which is chewy and not easy to spread. It has a fragrant taste and a texture. The boiled water tofu is not easy to form, although it is soft and tender, it is not the best choice and easily spreads. Dice the cowpea, chopped green onion and use the middle and front section to maintain the color and taste. Here I chose ground pork. Chop the garlic into minced garlic, shred the ginger slices and mince.
2.
Add peanut oil to medium heat, sauté the minced ginger and chili, then add garlic. When sauteing, it is not advisable to heat it quickly, and it must be stirred constantly to release the aroma. Otherwise, the color of the material will be scorched black but with a sense of bitterness. After sauteing, add the minced meat, stir fry, and pour in the cooking wine to increase the aroma. Add the ground cowpea and stir fry a few more times, then pour in water or use the broth, and then add tofu. Then pour in chili oil and pepper oil, cover the pot and boil
3.
Add the tempeh and simmer for five minutes, then add the light soy sauce chicken powder, then add the starch water to the lid and simmer for five minutes. When the juice is thick, add the green onion and white flowers, and simmer for half a minute. In addition to sauteing ginger and minced garlic, keeping the high fire all the way is to keep the tofu and the ingredients hot. The tempeh is salty and fresh without adding salt and soy sauce.
4.
After turning off the heat, add the chopped green onion and coriander stalks, stir well, and serve. carry out
Tips:
Tip 1: Tofu must be kept boiling hot, so add cold water to the boil at the beginning. The heat is increased by the pepper oil, and the high temperature throughout the process keeps the piping hot taste. Technique two, the scallion must be used in the front part to be bright and green and not easy to turn black. In my picture, the back part is not bright enough.
