Originally from Sichuan, China — soft tofu and ground meat simmered in a spicy, savory sauce made with doubanjiang (豆板醤) and tianmianjiang (甜麺醤 / a sweet miso-like paste). The silky tofu and glossy, rich sauce are a perfect match, and it's the kind of dish that makes the rice disappear fast. Also delicious served over rice as mabo-don (麻婆丼).
中国・四川省がルーツの料理で、豆腐とひき肉を、豆板醤や甜麺醤(テンメンジャン、甘みのある味噌のような調味料)などのスパイスで甘辛く炒め煮にした料理だよ。トロッとしたコクのあるあんと、柔らかい豆腐の食感が絶妙で、ご飯がどんどん進む味付けなの。ご飯の上に直接のせて「麻婆丼」として食べるのもおすすめだよ!
