Mabo-Tofu is my go-to dinner, easy to make and eve

Mabo-Tofu is my go-to dinner, easy to make and everyone loves. Servings: 4-6 Ingredients :
2 packs silken tofu
¾ pound ground pork
2 cups chicken or pork broth (unsalted)
2 cloves garlic about 1 teaspoon, minced
1 teaspoon of minced ginger
1 tablespoon white or yellow miso
1 ½ tablespoon tobanjan (chili bean sauce)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
½ tablespoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar
½ tablespoon sesame oil
½ cup chopped green onions or garlic chives
2 springs of green onions, white parts, chopped 1 tablespoon corn starch
2 tablespoon water Directions:
Gather the ingredients.
Fill a medium pot with water halfway and bring to a boil.
Cut tofu into cubes and add to the boiling water. Boil tofu for 3-5 minutes.
While the tofu is boiling, add sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger, and white parts of green onions to a saute pan. Cook on low heat until fragrant then add ground pork. Turn the heat up to medium and cook ground pork until cooked through.
Add seasonings to the ground pork and cook until everything is incorporated and starts smelling really good. Add chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Check for seasoning.
Drain the tofu then add it to the ground pork mixture. Turn the heat down and simmer for 5 minutes. Add green onions.
Mix cornstarch and water. With the heat on, drizzle corn starch and water into the tofu mixture. Stir to make sure the corn starch does not clump up.
Check for the seasoning one more time. Add salt and more tobanjan if necessary.
Serve hot with steamed rice. #mabotofu
