Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 package soft tofu, drained
  • 1 Tbsp black bean sauce
  • 3 Tbsp doubanjiang (chili bean sauce)

Instructions

  1. 1. Place tofu in a bowl of water with about a teaspoon of salt. Meanwhile, pour the vegetable stock in a bowl & mix in the flour/starch. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Do not stir in the starch if your broth is hot!!
  2. 2. In a wok or a large frying pan, heat up oil on medium high heat. When oil is heated (flick a little water to hear a sizzle to confirm), add garlic & sauté until aromatic.
  3. 3. Add the mushrooms & stir. Add the chili sauce, peppercorns, & the black beans. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Reduce heat to medium.
  4. 4. Remove tofu from salted water & chop into 1 inch cubes. Add the tofu to the pan along with the vegetable broth. Cook until the tofu & sauce are thoroughly mixed. Sprinkle on sesame seeds, sesame oil, salt to taste, & green onions. Remove from heat & serve over a bed of rice. Top with more peppercorn if heat is desired.
