Today I cooked Fried Tofu with Pork Mince in the way similar to my ‘Mabo Dofu Japanese Style’. Pork Mince can be thinly sliced Pork, OR you may prefer Chicken OR Beef instead. The main ingredient is Fried Tofu that is quite meaty. This is a very satisfying dish that can be enjoyed with freshly cooked Rice.
