Recipe instructions

  1. Have a pot of boiling water handy when starting to cook this recipe.
  2. Keep a bowl handy lined with a sieve.
  3. When ready to start cooking carefully put the tofu into the boiling water.
  4. Heat wok to smoking; add a tablespoon or two of oil and stir in seasonings.
  5. (Note: if the wok looks too dry during cooking, just add a little more oil by pouring it directly onto the hot metal).
  6. As soon as the seasonings start to give off a pungent aroma add the bbq pork and stir fry for 2- 3 minutes to coat with oil and seasonings and to heat through.
  7. Add the pea pods and continue stirring until they're hot.
  8. Pour the tofu into a colander or sieve and let it drain while you continue the recipe.
  9. Give the sauce ingredients a good stir and pour into the wok, trying to hit the metal surface rather than the contents.
  10. When it starts to bubble thicken it with a little of the binder.
  11. (The secret is to just draw the sauce together without making it gummy).
  12. Stir in a few drops of the sesame oil.
  13. Very carefully stir and toss in the tofu.
  14. Serve immediately on a heated platter with steamed rice.
