Step 1: Prepare the ingredients.
Cut an old tofu into even small pieces. The types of tofu can be selected according to your own taste. Old tofu tastes better when cooked, and tender tofu tastes better.
White onion, broken, cut into chopped green onion, a little garlic, chopped garlic, a little shallot, cut into pieces for later use.
Step 2: Blanch the tofu.
Boil water in the pot and add a little salt to taste. After the water is boiled, put the cut tofu into the pot and cook for about one minute. Pour out the tofu and control the water. Blanching water can not only remove the beany smell of tofu, but also make tofu more tender and unbreakable.
Step 3: Start cooking.
Add hot oil to the pot. When the oil is hot, pour in the onion and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Add bean paste 15g, stir fry the bean paste in red oil, and add more bean paste to increase the color and flavor. Then add 20g pepper and stir well. Friends who can't make Chili peppers can watch our previous videos. Add a proper amount of water from the side of the pot and start seasoning: add 2g salt, chicken powder 1g, pepper 1g, a little fresh sugar, 3g soy sauce1g, soy sauce, stir to remove seasoning, pour the tofu pieces into the pot, and simmer for 3 minutes to let the tofu absorb the soup and taste.
After three minutes, add water starch three times, the first time is a little thinner, and the second time is a little thicker, so that the sauce is firmly wrapped on the tofu, and the bottom is pushed with the back of the spoon to prevent paste until the soup is thick. Finally, sprinkle with shallots and serve.
