Tips:

1. Stir-fried minced meat and bean paste is a key step in the deliciousness of this dish, the minced meat should be stir-fried to increase the flavor of the oil, and the bean paste should be fried to make it spicy, which can not only enhance the flavor, but also cover up the beany smell of the old tofu. The bean paste itself is salty, so you can choose to put in the amount of salt or not.

2. The thickness of the cut tofu pieces is about 0.3 cm, and it does not need to be too thick. If you cut it too thinly, it will be easy to cook it, and if you cut it too thick, the tofu cubes will not be able to fully absorb the flavor.
