For health and weight-loss reasons, if I can get away with it, I try not to use oil in my cooking whenever possible. Ground meat already has a lot of fat, so you can make this dish without adding any oil. If you are making this for kids, reduce the amount of doubanjiang and add some sugar.

Douchi is a Chinese fermented food product made with black soy beans. If you don't have any, just add another teaspoon of tianmianjiang. If you don't have that either, try substituting red miso, sugar and soy sauce (3 teaspoons, 2 teaspoons and 1 teaspoon respectively). Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei

1. Make narrow cuts in the leek about halfway through. Make cuts halfway through on the other side too.
2. Chop it up after making the cuts and you'll end up with very finely minced leek. With this method, the cut end of the leek doesn't spread out so it's really easy to chop.
3. Finely chop the garlic and ginger. chop up the douchijiang too.
4. Combine the â—‹ ingredients and mix well. Cut the tofu into cubes, and drain in a sieve.
5. Put the ground pork, garlic, ginger and ● flavoring ingredients in a frying pan and mix together. Adjust the amount of doubanjiang (spiciness) to taste!
6. When the mixture looks like this, turn on the heat.

11. When the tofu has warmed through, thicken the sauce with katakuriko dissolved in water. Don't add it all at once; add it little by little while observing how thick the sauce is getting.
