Step 1

Remove tofu from package carefully and place on a plate. Using a knife, cut it horizontally, vertically and on the sides so they are 1 inch cubes.

Step 2

In a skillet or wok, heat up oil on medium heat. Add ground pork or beef, break it up and stir fry.

Step 3

Turn down the heat and add the spicy chili bean sauce, sichuan peppercorn, soy sauce, sugar, and minced garlic and stir fry.

Step 4

Add tofu to skillet/wok and gently mix it with the sauce so that it doesn’t break apart.

Step 5

Add the cornstarch slurry and mix well (gently). Now let the tofu simmer in the sauce for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle with sliced green onions, mix well and then remove from heat and serve!
