Mapo Tofu

Mapo Tofu

Overview

Mapo tofu is the most common dish in Sichuan cuisine. It is spicy, spicy, fragrant, crispy, tender and fresh. You will never get tired of it. Today’s Mapo Tofu cannot be said to be authentic, but for Yi Zhu Fu, the key is whether it tastes good or not, and whether it suits the taste of your family, don’t you think? I was lazy and bought a bag of mapo tofu seasoning to make this dish easier to prepare, even a novice in the kitchen can do it easily.
