I found this mapo tofu sauce in the Asian grocery, decided to buy and try it. This is a cheat way of making mapo tofu. Just wanted to try and taste to see what the taste like and I like it.

It’s not very spicy for me. I cook it according to the packet for the ingredients. The packet said only need minced pork, soft tofu and this mapo tofu sauce. Next time I will try make from scratch and add a bit more ingredients.

Well, it’s looks good, taste delicious but I would have like it spicier. Next time I might add more chili sauce, perhaps spring onion and a bit more minced pork. Let’s cook!!!

Ingredients

100 g minced pork
250 g soft silken tofu
1 packet mapo tofu, 80 g

Enjoy it with a glass of white wine.
