Hello everyone! For those who love spicy, tangy dishes, this time I want to share a recipe for a mouth-watering spicy pork and tofu curry.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic (finely sliced)
  • 1 teaspoon finely sliced ginger
  • 8 oz pork (or chicken, or beef), cut into small half-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and half a teaspoon ground pepper

  • 1 onion (cut into half-inch pieces) and 8 stalks of spring onion (cut into half-inch lengths)
  • 2 chili peppers (thinly sliced) and 2 tablespoons chili paste (ngayone-hnyat)
  • Chicken broth or beef broth (20 tablespoons)
  • 1 lb tofu (cut into half-inch pieces)
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch and 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Step-by-step instructions

1. Heat the pot, then add the vegetable oil. Add the garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 1 to 2 minutes.

2. Next, add the pork (or beef, or chicken). Add salt and ground pepper, and stir-fry for about 2 minutes.

3. Add the chili powder and stir-fry for about 30 seconds.

4. Add the spring onion, chili peppers, and onion, and fry for about 1 minute.

5. Add the soybean sauce and chili paste.

6. Add the chicken broth or beef broth and bring to a boil for about 2 minutes. (Set aside about 4 tablespoons of the broth)

7. Then add the small tofu pieces and fry for about 3 to 4 minutes without letting the tofu break apart.

8. While the tofu is frying, mix the corn starch and 4 tablespoons of the reserved broth together in a small bowl until smooth. Then add it into the pot and stir-fry.

7. Once the tofu curry's sauce has thickened, you can remove it from the stove. Add sesame oil and enjoy it deliciously.
