Simple version of Mapo Tofu

Overview

I really like eating this kind of soft tofu with a tender texture and smooth taste. It is not like the texture of old tofu, which is a bit bitter. My favorite way to eat it is to stir-fry it with bean paste, it's very flavorful. The disadvantage is that I put too little water and there is no ruddy and beautiful soup~~ I should pay attention to it next time I make it.
