Spicy Garlic Tofu Stir Fry
Report
This spicy garlic tofu is quick and easy to throw together, taking just 10 minutes to cook (with a little bit of prep). While it's similar to mapo tofu, it's milder and quicker to make!

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon oil (any neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola)
- 10 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
- 4 oz. ground pork
- 2 medium shallots (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon spicy bean sauce (doubanjiang)
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock (or vegetable stock)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (mixed into a slurry with 1 tablespoon water)
- 1 pound firm tofu (cut into 3/4-inch/2 cm cubes)
- 1 scallion (chopped)
Instructions
- Heat the oil in your wok over medium heat. Stir in the garlic, and cook for about 30 seconds, or until the garlic begins to turn golden at the edges.
- Add the ground pork, and stir-fry until browned, about 1-2 minutes. Increase the heat to high, and add the shallots. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the shallots begin to turn translucent.
- Stir in the Shaoxing wine, hoisin sauce and spicy bean paste, and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Add the chicken stock, white pepper, sugar, and sesame oil. Bring the sauce to a simmer. Mix the cornstarch slurry, and pour into the sauce. Simmer for 30 seconds, until the sauce has thickened.
- Gently stir in the tofu cubes, and allow it to simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the scallions, and serve.
