Cooking Instructions
- 1
PREPARING THE RICE
In a medium size saucepan, bring the water and kosher salt to boil. Stir in the jasmine rice, and bring to a simmer. Cover the saucepan with a lid, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes or until the water has evaporated.
Prepare the other ingredients while the rice is cooking. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. - 2
PREPARING THE MAPO TOFU
Heat a large wok over medium-high heat with the sesame and chili oils. Once the oil is slightly smoking, add in the Wagyu ground beef in pieces. Use a wooden spoon to break up the ground beef into bite-size pieces. Let the ground beef brown in the wok. Then, turn the ground beef with the wooden spoon to allow the other side to cook. After 3 minutes, add in the minced garlic, minced ginger, minced white onion, chili bean sauce, and soy sauce. - 3
Cook while stirring occasionally.
Once the ground beef is cooked (2-3 minutes longer) all of the way through, remove the beef from the wok with a slotted spoon. Set it aside in a large bowl. NOTE: Leave some of the rendered fat and oil in the wok. Heat the remaining fat over medium-high heat in the wok, and add in the tofu to pan fry. Once the tofu is coated in the fat, cook it for 2 minutes longer. Carefully flip the tofu during the cooking process so it cooks through. - 4
Add the Wagyu ground beef back to the wok. Add the sichuan peppercorns and minced green onion into the wok as well, and carefully toss.
