Cooking Instructions
- 1
Start by mixing the cornflour with a little water in a jug. Mix in all the other sauce ingredients. You'll want to make the sauce a total of about 120ml or so - top up with water as necessary, and stir thoroughly. It doesn't matter if it's a little bit runny, as water will evaporate when you are cooking. Set aside.
- 2
Prepare all your other ingredients - everything needs to be on hand when you start to cook. Have a cup or jug of water ready, too.
- 3
Heat the cooking oil in a wok (or a large frying pan). If your vegetables include onions or leeks put them in first. Then add all your herbs and spices and stir fry all these ingredients for a minute or two. If you are cooking tofu (or other protein), add this next and stir fry for another minute or two.
- 4
Now start adding all your other ingredients. Stir continuously. Add first the things you think will take longest to cook - any pre-cooked ingredients (like noodles) go in last, followed by the sauce. Keep stirring and adding ingredients. Splash in a little water as needed to keep the cooking food moist and steamy, and to stop it from sticking to the pan. Once everything is added, keep stirring for 3-4 minutes longer.
- 5
OPTIONAL - you can use the sauce as a marinade for firm, cubed tofu (or other vegan protein) if you like. Make it at least 30 minutes or more before you plan to cook, and soak the tofu / protein in it until dinner time. Then, when you add the tofu / protein into the stir fry, save any remaining marinade to add at the very end.
NOTE: If using the sauce as a marinade, you may prefer to mix some or all of the spices in at this point.

Mapo Napa Cabbage to use up Napa Cabbage Mapo Napa Cabbage to use up Napa Cabbage
This rich stir-fry dish comes together easily! The secret to this foolproof, quick dish is the mapo tofu sauce mix.Cut the napa cabbage into large pieces!Use a smaller amount of water than it says on the box, since the napa cabbage releases a lot of moisture.The napa cabbage adds sweetness to the sauce, so it will have a slightly sweeter taste than the usual mapo tofu taste. (That is, the medium sauce mix will taste like mild sauce.)If you would like a little kick, add some doubanjiang. Recipe by Shijimi24
