I&#8217;m not keen on eating the same thing all the time, and I like trying new recipes. I&#8217;m always on the lookout for interesting dishes and flavors to play with, so when I came across a recipe for beans in the style of mapo tofu, I was intrigued. Of course I don&#8217;t eat meat, so I tweaked it to create these vegan mapo beans!
