Korean Mapo Tofu

마파두부
In this recipe, chilli bean sauce (Toban Djan) is replaced with gochujang and hot pepper powder to give this Chinese classic a Korean twist! Be patient while the tofu cooks in a familiar sweet n' spicy sauce, then dig in with a serving of freshly steamed rice for a new taste you'll never forget.
