Original recipe from The Woks of Life You’ll find a couple other recipes for Mapo Tofu here, I really like this version, although I had to modify it to add a smaller amount of hot ingredients at the end, since I’m the only one who eats spicy food. update: 07-2024 - I’ve been substituting mushrooms for the pork, and I think I like it better that way! Ingredients: 1/4 cup oil 2 tablespoons chili oil 1 fresh Thai chili pepper, sliced 3 dried red chilies, chopped 1 Tablespoon ground Sichuan peppercorns + some for finishing 3 Tablespoons ginger (grated) 3 Tablespoons garlic (grated) 8 ounces ground pork or 8 ounces chopped crimini or other mushrooms 2 Tablespoons spicy bean sauce, divided in half 2/3 cup chicken broth (or water) 1 package (16 ounces) tofu (cut into 1 inch cubes).

I make this at least twice a month. I’ve found no better version than this, and wanted to make sure I stashed a copy here… Original came from: https://thewoksoflife.com/beef-with-broccoli-all-purpose-stir-fry-sauce/#recipe I did some editing and minor changes to simplify measuring and cooking, and my flavor/cooking preferences… Ingredients For the beef and marinade: 1 pound flank steak (sliced 1/4-inch thick). Hint, take flank steak, cut 3 equal slices with the grain, then cut each slice against the grain at an angle.

Came across a recipe for this (Steamed Tofu with Ground Pork - Delightful Plate), and loved it so much, we have it several times a month. As always, I changed the basics to suit my tastes. I highly recommend a bamboo steamer for this recipe, otherwise you have the problem of moisture condensing and dripping on the plate. This dish has the great advantage that you can prepare up to steaming, move on to preparing other dishes, and 15 minutes before they’re ready, put this in the steamer.

Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: 4 hours Yield: 4 servings Ingredients 1 pound flank steak or tri-tip, cut in thin strips on the bias 1/4 cup cornstarch 2 tablespoons olive oil 3/4 cup soy sauce 3/4 cup water 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1″ thin sliced or minced fresh ginger 1 cup grated carrot 3 scallions, chopped (for garnish) Orange zest (optional) Sesame seeds Directions Take thin cut steak, coat with cornstarch in a bowl or ziplock bag Put all ingredients, except meat, in slow cooker.

I used this with crab, but the sauce would go great on chicken, beef, or veggies. 4 Tbsp Hoisin sauce 3 Tbsp olive oil 1/4 cup soy sauce 1/4 cup white wine 2 Tbsp Sriracha sauce 1 tsp sesame oil Add all ingredients to a saucepan, warm through. Add to dish, stir together to coat.
