Bbq Pork With Tofu And Pea Pods In Hot Bean Sauce Recipes

BBQ PORK WITH TOFU AND PEA PODS IN HOT BEAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Have a pot of boiling water handy when starting to cook this recipe.
• Keep a bowl handy lined with a sieve.
• When ready to start cooking carefully put the tofu into the boiling water.
• Heat wok to smoking; add a tablespoon or two of oil and stir in seasonings.
• (Note: if the wok looks too dry during cooking, just add a little more oil by pouring it directly onto the hot metal).
• As soon as the seasonings start to give off a pungent aroma add the bbq pork and stir fry for 2- 3 minutes to coat with oil and seasonings and to heat through.
• Add the pea pods and continue stirring until they're hot.
• Pour the tofu into a colander or sieve and let it drain while you continue the recipe.
• Give the sauce ingredients a good stir and pour into the wok, trying to hit the metal surface rather than the contents.
• When it starts to bubble thicken it with a little of the binder.
• (The secret is to just draw the sauce together without making it gummy).
• Stir in a few drops of the sesame oil.
• Very carefully stir and toss in the tofu.
• Serve immediately on a heated platter with steamed rice.
