Not sure. It from a Chinese YouTube videographer. Soft tofu, toasted red Sichuan peppercorns that I ground, ginger, garlic, broad bean chili paste, peanut oil, fermented black beans and just a bit of crisp minced pork, all very slightly thickened with arrowroot. We put it over sweet rice. I use Chinese cooking techniques in a very well loved wok. Sometimes we add in oyster sauce as I fry the garlic, ginger, chili paste and black beans. Sometimes not. Depends on mood
Sounds like a Cantonese style mapo tofu. In Sichuan (the place of origin) they use one box of soft tofu (cut into cubes), 150g of ground beef (they like to use ones with fat), minced garlic and ginger (you add them based on your own preference). For the sauce they use soysauce 1tbs, 2 tbs Sichuan chili bean paste (Doubanjiang 豆瓣酱), 3 tbs of sugar, 3 tbs sweet and spicy bean paste (tian mian Jiang 甜辣酱), 1 spicy green chili pepper (in China they use one called the 川辣椒 Chuan chili, but since we don't have it out here we can use 2 Jalapeño pepper). Seasoning they use, 1 tbs if salt, 1 tbs of chicken bouillon powder (if you can't get that you can use msg, Japanese dashi powder or a packet of instant noodle soup flavor), 2 tbs of cooking wine (liao jiu 料酒, you can use alcohol of your preference if you don't have cooking wine, since it's all about the fragrance), 1 tbs of oyster sauce, Chinese 5 spice powder, 1 Chinese sugar rock candy, 2 cups of Sichuan peppercorn water. For garnish you use grounded Sichuan peppercorn, chili flakes, finely chopped red chili (dried if possible) , chopped green onions, 2 tbs of boiling oil.
