Tofu and Shrimp Salt-Flavored Mapo Tofu with Crunchy Crispy Toppings
- 1 block Tofu
- 12 Shrimp
- 20 grams Frozen green peas
- 1 piece Carrot (minced)
- 1 piece Ginger (minced)
- 1 tbsp Green onion (minced)
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoons Doubanjiang
- 200 ml Water
- 1 1/2 tsp Chicken soup stock granules
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 1 Katakuriko slurry
- 1 Tempura crumbs and green onion for garnish
- Drain the water from the tofu very well.
- Peel the shrimp, remove the intestinal tracts.
- Sprinkle with a little sake (not listed) and massage the shrimp well.
- If you need to make tempura crumbs do it now: Fry some tempura batter by drizzling it into hot oil, then take out and drain well.
- Heat up the sesame oil in a frying pan, add the ingredients marked with and stir fry until aromatic.
- Add the doubanjiang and stir fry lightly.
- Add the ingredients marked with and bring to a boil.
- Add the green peas.
- Add the tofu that has been cut into easy to eat pieces, and shake the frying pan.
- When it comes to a boil again, add the shrimp.
- When they change color turn off the heat.
- Add the katakuriko slurry, stir gently, then turn the heat on again and cook until the sauce has thickened.
- Transfer to a serving plate and top with tempura crumbs and thinly sliced green onion.
- This is a version where the tempura crumbs are simmered in the sauce.
- I just changed used red chili peppers to doubanjiang.
- Otherwise all the other amounts are the same.
- It's also delicious served over rice (enough for 2 servings).
