This dish is simple, just consists of cubes of tofu and ground beef or pork, in a spicy chili bean sauce . This time I used the spicy chili bean sauce 辣豆瓣醬 that given by my sister who brought back from Taiwan trip. But this bean sauce is not spicy at all and the taste not that good, still prefer to cook with chili paste with normal soy bean sauce.
