I make my Mabo Tofu recipe with plenty of garlic chives but with less meat. The key to its delicious taste is my mum's secret sauce! *Note: if you cannot find garlic chives, you can use a leek or green onion instead.

Steps

30 mins

1

Cut tofu into 2 cm cubes and wrap them in kitchen paper. Leave for a while to allow the paper to absorb the water from the tofu. Or you can dry the tofu by putting it into a microwave for about 3 min.
2

Cut the garlic chives to 3 cm pieces.
3

Put the grated ginger, sugar, soy sauce, grated garlic, sake and gouchujang paste into a small bowl and mix together well.
4

Heat sesame oil in a pan, then add the minced pork when oil is hot. When the pork has browned, put in the sauce. When it comes to a boil, put in the garlic chives and tofu and mix lightly together by shaking a pan.
