mmm....

i am in the middle of making some wicked awesome tofu. it is a basic garlic pepper tofu, but i did it without any help or recipe. it isn't super hot, but it has a nice gradual warming to it. the end product will be a little spicier.
here is what i did...
chop up a shit-ton of garlic.
put some oil (i used extra virgin because i'm out of canola)
heat it up real good
add cubes of tofu (don't forget to press the water out first)
cover the tofu with black pepper, then red pepper flakes, then dark mushroom soy sauce and mirin
fry the crap out of it.
then set it aside.
in another pan, put more garlic in there, heat it up with more oil.
then begin to fry the mushrooms, add green onion, asparagus and more pepper and sauces, i think i'll add a pinch of sugar because i am out of plum sauce.
serve it over brown rice. if you want, put some cock sauce on the side, it should be good.
i'm not done with it, but I'll comment on the outcome.
