  1. Finely chop the garlic and thinly slice the spring onion. Keep the white part for stir frying and the green part for garnish.
  2. Cut the firm tofu into cubes.
  3. Pour boiling water over the tofu and let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes to take away the strong soy smell, then drain.
  4. Heat the oil in a wok.
  5. Stir fry the garlic and the white part of the spring onion just until fragrant, without letting them colour.
  6. Add the ground beef and cook until it changes colour.
  7. Stir in the doubanjiang and cook it briefly with the meat.
  8. Add the Sichuan chili flakes to taste.
  9. Pour in the water, then add the oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar and salt. Stir until combined.
  10. Add the tofu and simmer over low heat for only 2 to 3 minutes so the tofu does not swell and fall apart.
  11. Pour in the cornstarch and water slurry and stir until the sauce thickens.
  12. Finish with a little sesame oil, then turn off the heat.
  13. Serve topped with the green part of the spring onion, alongside hot rice.
