麻辣豆腐的做法 Spicy hot tofu (bean curd)

 

“麻婆豆腐”是四川著名的特色菜。相传清代同治年间，四川成都北门外丌福桥边有一家小饭店，妇店主陈某善于烹制菜肴，她用豆腐、牛肉末、辣椒、花椒、豆瓣酱等烧制的豆腐，麻辣鲜香，味美可口，十分受人欢迎。当时此菜没有正式名称，因陈脸上有麻子，人们便称为“麻婆豆腐”，从此名扬全国。一百多年来，随着川菜的发展，全国名地的川菜馆，乃至海外一些华侨开设的中国餐馆，都经营此菜，前不久日本商人还模仿四川的“麻婆豆腐”制成“麻婆豆腐”罐头食品，销往世界各地。

1 cup water
1/2 tsp. sesame oil

1 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. hot bean paste
1/4 tsp. ground Sichuan peppercorns, toasted
1/4 cup chopped water chestnuts
2 green onions, trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 package (14-ounces) soft tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Instructions
1. Pour enough warm water over the mushrooms in a small bowl to cover them completely. Soak until softened, about 20 minutes. Drain. Discard the stem and chop the caps coarsely.
2. Marinate the pork: Stir the ground pork, soy sauce and cornstarch together until evenly distributed.
3. Prepare the sauce: Stir the water, soy sauce and sesame oil together in a small bowl.
4. Heat a wok over high heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the sides. Add the garlic and stir-fry until fragrant about 20 seconds. Add the pork, hot bean paste and peppercorns and stir-fry until the pork is crumbly, 2 to 3 minutes.
5. Pour the sauce into the wok, then stir in the water chestnuts and green onions. Slide the tofu into the wok, and stir gently to coat the tofu with the sauce and heat through, 2-4 minutes.
6. Pour in the dissolved cornstarch and cook gently, stirring, until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Spoon the tofu and sauce onto a serving platter and serve hot.
