Mabo Tofu

This recipe makes very little gravy except for the liquid that comes out of the tofu. It is so delicious that you won't miss the gravy.

1 block firm tofu (14 oz), cut into 1" cubes
1/2 - 3/4 lb ground pork
1" x 1/4" piece fresh ginger, peeled and crushed slightly
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 - 2 tsp Chinese black bean garlic sauce
1 tsp Chinese chili garlic sauce
2 stalks green onions, sliced
1 Tbs canola oil
White pepper to taste

1. Heat the oil in a pot or skillet. Add the garlic, black bean sauce, and ginger. Brown lightly.
2. Add the pork, breaking up the meat into small pieces. Sauté until the pork is cooked.
3. Add the tofu cubes, chili sauce, and white pepper.
4. Turn down the heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
5. Add the green onions during the last 5 minutes.
