This was good, but I found I really needed to dump in the hot chili's to bring it up to any kind of flavor as I thought it was rather bland.

Delicious. I've made this dish many times and the BF (who is not normally a tofu fan) and I always gobble it up. For those of you have trouble finding fermented black beans - the black bean paste/sauce that comes in a jar works great (you should be able to find it at the Ethinc Food isle at your grocery store). I serve this plain white rice, and I like to double the sauce b/c love having it over my rice. I also use sliced waterchestnuts instead of peas for some extra crunch (and b/c the BF doesn't like peas but loves waterchestnuts). Another tip - I once subbed beef broth for the chicken broth b/c I'd ran out of the latter, and it tasted great as well - richer, in fact. So, when you feel like having a richer tofu dish, use beef broth. Otherwise, chicken broth is just fine.

I've made this dish twice and it turned out great both times! I left out the peas, made a little extra sauce, & dried the tofu out a bit in the oven (as one of the previous reviewers recommended). My husband loved this dish and said it was as good as what we've had in local restaurants!

Excellent Chinese comfort food! I only used half a teaspoon of chili paste and omitted the cayenne pepper entirely. This gave it a hint of spiciness that I enjoy.

Made once with tofu and once with chicken thighs (cut in pieces). Very good both ways!

I really love this dish and so do my children and very picky husband. It is not a dish that we would typically like but it is great.

This was very tasty. My husband and I both loved it. The only thing I felt like it was missing was the straw mushrooms. Also we didn't add any peas. I love peas, just not in my tufo. I'm so glad to have the recipe!!!

This recipe is awesome!! My husband and I go to this little restaurant that serves Ma Po Bean Curd and this recipe is the closest match I could find. Really good, even for non tofu eaters...
