Mapo Tofu is a classic dish from Sichuan cuisine, known for its spicy and numbing flavor profile. The main ingredients include tofu (bean curd), minced pork or beef, fermented broad bean paste (doubanjiang), Sichuan peppercorns, and chili oil. The dish is often cooked with garlic, ginger, and soy sauce, and is characterized by its bold, spicy flavors combined with the creamy texture of the tofu.
