Mapo Tofu

I got the recipe for this from a friend, and I had a lot of tofu to use up. My cousin was going to make it at first, but due to time constraints, I ended up making it.

Recipe as my friend sent it to me:

I didn't have light soy sauce, so I omitted it, and just put 3 tbs of dark soy sauce. Didn't have black bean paste, but had the actual black beans, so I mashed them with a bit of water to turn them into a paste. The tofu wasn't exactly silken, but it was soft enough. It was served with black rice with diced sweet potato mixed in.
