Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture. Once pressed, cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
-
In the crock pot, combine the vegetable broth, minced garlic, sliced onion, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, ginger, Chinese five-spice powder, and red pepper flakes. Mix well to combine.
-
Add the cubed tofu to the crock pot, ensuring that the tofu is submerged in the liquid.
-
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, until the tofu is tender and flavorful.
-
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the crock pot to thicken the sauce. Let it cook for an additional 20-30 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
-
Once the sauce has thickened, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
-
Serve the Asian Crock Pot Pork over cooked rice and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for an extra burst of flavor.
