Minced Tofu With Spicy Black Bean Sauce

3.0

1 lb extra firm tofu (drained and pressed)

Neutral cooking oil

2 tbsp Chinese fermented black beans

2 tbsp soy sauce (, to taste)

2 tsp dark soy sauce (, optional for color)

1 tbsp Chinese black vinegar

2 tbsp maple syrup (or other sweetener )

¼ cup room temperature water

Neutral cooking oil

1 small onion (diced)

½ tbsp minced garlic

½ tbsp minced ginger

1 tbsp shallot sauce (, optional but highly recommended!)

Soy sauce (to taste, if needed)

Steamed rice

Green onions (for topping)

Drain the tofu from liquid and press to draw out any excess moisture. Crumble the tofu with your hands.
Place the tofu in a lined air-fryer basket. Spray with some oil.
Air-fry at 350F/180C for 13-15 mins or until lightly golden brown, flip halfway through cooking. Don’t over cook! Some white parts are fine, this will add to the overall texture of the dish. Cooking for too long will dry out the tofu.
Once cooked, set aside for stir-frying.
Prepare the sauce ingredients and mix until well combined. Feel free to adjust according to desired taste.
Heat a medium-sized pan or wok over medium heat with oil. Once hot, add the onion and stir-fry for a few seconds until translucent. Add the garlic and ginger. Cook until aromatic.
Add in the shallot sauce (if using). Pour the sauce into the pan. Lower the heat. Allow the sauce to come to a gentle simmer.
Add the air-fried tofu. Mix in the sauce until well-combined. Cook down until the sauce has reduced and slightly thickened fro meh sugars.
Taste the tofu and season with more soy sauce, if needed, to taste.
Serve while hot with steamed rice. Top with green onions, if desired. Enjoy!
