Tofu with Minced Meat

Tofu with Minced Meat (肉酱豆腐) is one of my family’s favourite dishes and I have cooked it for many years but never got tired of it. This dish is really good with a bowl of warm fluffy white rice, and we often fought over the savoury gravy. Such humble home-cooked food (家常菜) is the reason why  I like to cook, because it taste so homely  and you can’t really order this type of food outside, well at least not so commonly.

Sometimes I also add mushrooms to it, making it a more balanced dish if I don’t have time to whip up another side dish of vegetables. I call this dish the localized version of the popular Sichuan dish, Mapo Tofu, without the numbing heat.

  4. Hi Wiffy,
    I’m a newbie in cooking.
    I am learning from your blog and really love your detailed recipes!
    May I ask a question… for minced meat bought from market, would you rinsed it with tap water before cooking?
    Thanks in advance!

    • Hi Cam, no don’t wash meat which is already minced. Very messy.
      If you like, you can go to wet market … usually can request the uncle to rinse the meat for you before mincing.
      Or mince the meat yourself at home (but more work).

    • Hi Bee Lay, thanks for your sweet comment, you made me happy to know that the recipes have been well-received by your family. Happy cooking :D

  8. LOVED this dish. So simple but super tasty – soothing with a bit of zing.
    I chopped up chicken thigh by hand. Really liked the rough texture (I did use more: 150g)
    I do not have taucheo/salted soya beans so I replaced it with 1/2 tsp miso and 1/2 tsp chili bean sauce. Because I already had that spice I left out the chili.
    Thank you so much – I know I will have this dish many times over!!!!
