Seriously Good Mapo Tofu
Tofu is available everywhere in the U.S., so I devised this recipe that can be made from ingredients available overseas as well.
Once you start cooking, work quickly. Make sure you have all the ingredients prepped and ready to go.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
We use doubanjiang or ra-yu with beans in it.
- 2
It's essential to have all the ingredients prepped before you start cooking! Cut the tofu into cubes - the size is up to you. Mix the ground meat with sake and a little salt to flavor.
- 3
Spread oil in a frying pan, add the garlic and ginger and stir fry. When they're heated through, add the doubanjiang.
- 4
Add the meat and stir fry. When it's cooked, add the chicken stock, sugar and soy sauce, then the tofu.
- 5
When the tofu is heated through, add the leek. Sprinkle vinegar to taste. Taste and add and add salt if needed. Pour in the katakuriko dissolved in water. You're done!
- 6
When you have time, boil the cut up tofu for about 2 minutes and drain well beforehand to improve the dish.

This is a routine dish in our family as we try to avoid using artificial seasoning. I wanted to deepen the flavor so I modified the seasonings and settled on this recipe.Try using the miso (rice miso) that you have at home instead of the doubanjiang if you don't like it spicy. Adults could also pour some ra-yu on top just before eating.If you use 1/2 teaspoon of doubanjiang and 1/2 teaspoon of miso, you get a slightly spicy flavor.Adjust the flavor to your preference!Try with 50 g of ground pork.
