Spicy Pork Tofu
Recipe Courtesy of Ming Tsai
Show:  East Meets West With Ming Tsai
Episode:  Homemade Tofu with Pops
HOMEMADE TOFU WITH POPS

2 cups chopped napa cabbage
1/2 tablespoon salt
Canola oil to cook
1/2 pound ground pork
2 tablespoons minced ginger
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons thin soy sauce
3 tablespoons sesame oil
10 slices of tofu (2-inch by 1-inch)

Sprinkle cabbage with the 1/2 tablespoon of salt and let stand for 30 minutes. Place the cabbage on a clean dish towel or cheese cloth and squeeze out any water. The dryer the cabbage, the better. In a hot wok that's been coated with canola oil add the ground pork. Stir-fry until nearly cooked through. Add ginger, garlic and salt; cook for another two minutes. Deglaze with soy sauce, add napa cabbage and sesame oil, continue cooking until the cabbage is wilted. Check seasoning.

Plating: Spoon contents of wok over the tofu on a large serving platter, serve family style.
