Recipe Cook it yourself
- Prep approx. 40 min
Spicy mapo tofu with sunflower mince in a fiery bean and gochujang sauce with Sichuan pepper and Thai basil, served with aubergine and shiitake vegetables with flat runner beans and jasmine rice. Finished with chilli crisp for a real kick. Ready in about 40 minutes.
Method
Rice
Rinse the rice in a sieve under cold running water and drain well. Bring the water and salt to the boil, add the rice, cover and leave to simmer gently over a low heat for approx. 12 mins without ever lifting the lid. Remove the pan from the heat, leave the rice to rest for approx. 5 mins, then fluff up with a fork.
Beans
Cook the beans in well-salted water for approx. 6 mins until just tender, drain, refresh in cold water and drain.
Aubergine vegetables
Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan. Fry the aubergine for approx. 5 mins until golden brown. Add the shiitake and fry for approx. 3 mins more, then briefly fry the garlic and ginger. Stir in the beans, season with soy sauce, sesame oil, salt and pepper, and keep warm.
Tofu and mince
Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Lightly fry the sunflower mince and tofu for approx. 3 mins, then remove.
Mapo sauce
Soften the onion in the same pan for approx. 2 mins. Add the garlic, ginger, tomato purée, bean paste, gochujang, Sichuan pepper and five-spice powder and cook for approx. 1 min. Pour in the water, soy sauce, rice vinegar and sugar and bring to the boil. Stir in the cornflour mixture and simmer for approx. 1 min until the sauce thickens. Add the mince, tofu, bean sprouts and spring onion and heat through for approx. 3 mins. Stir in the basil.
To serve
Serve the mapo tofu with the rice and aubergine vegetables, drizzling over chilli crisp to taste.
- Tip 1:
- Chilli bean paste, gochujang and chilli crisp are available in Asian shops and larger supermarkets. For a milder version, use just 1 tsp bean paste.
- Tip 2:
- Use green beans instead of flat runner beans.
- Tip 3:
- Serve with a cucumber salad with rice vinegar and sesame.
