Directions

  1. 1Dice your jalapeño into small cubes and dice green onions.
  2. 2Drain the liquid out of your tofu and pat dry.
  3. 3In a bowl, place your tofu, crack your eggs and mix well with salt and black pepper using gloves. Mix until it turns into an oatmeal-like consistency.
  4. 4Place heat-safe plastic wrap to seal the bowl air tight then poke a bunch of small holes into the plastic wrap.
  5. 5Place the bowl into your steamer and steam for roughly 10-12 minutes or until the tofu-egg mixture is fluffy but cooked through.
  6. 6In a pan coated with spray oil on medium heat, cook your ground beef with toban djan paste, soy sauce, oyster sauce, minced garlic, and diced jalapeños.
  7. 7In a small bowl, combine your water and cornstarch to create a cornstarch slurry and pour it into the pan once the meat is fully cooked to slightly thicken the sauce.
  8. 8Place your beef on top of the steamed tofu-egg mixture and top it off with your green onions and enjoy!
