Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Place the tofu cubes on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess moisture.

  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until golden brown on all sides. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside.

  3. In the same skillet, add more oil if needed and sauté the minced garlic and grated ginger until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  4. Add the mashed fermented black beans to the skillet and stir fry for another minute to release their flavors.

  5. Add the sliced red and green bell peppers and cook until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  6. Return the tofu to the skillet and gently mix everything together.

  7. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and vegetable broth. Pour this sauce over the tofu and vegetable mixture, stirring gently to combine.

  8. Allow the dish to simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  9. Once the sauce has thickened slightly, remove the skillet from the heat.

  10. Serve the Tofu with Black Bean Sauce over cooked rice and garnish with chopped green onions.
