These easy, creamy, and spicy noodles are infused with the flavors of a classic mapo tofu recipe, done with a unique twist!

 

First seen from creators like Lea At The Table on RedNote, creamy mapo udon gives a new way to try the popular mapo tofu, a Sichuan classic. Typically, a mapo tofu recipe is ground meat and cubes of tofu seasoned with ingredients like Lee Kum Kee Chili Bean Sauce and Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Sauce.

 

In this version, the tofu is instead blended into a creamy sauce and served separately from the ground meat mixture. You then combine the two with udon noodles and garnishes like green onion and Lee Kum Kee Chiu Chow Chili Crisp Oil, merging everything into one creamy and savory noodle dish that comes together in under 30 minutes!

How to make it

  1. Cook udon noodles according to package instructions. Drain well and divide into serving bowls.

  2. Heat neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground pork and cook 3–4 minutes until browned and most of the liquid evaporates. Stir in Lee Kum Kee Minced Ginger and Lee Kum Kee Chili Bean Sauce and cook 30 seconds.

  3. Add Lee Kum Kee Chili Garlic Sauce, Lee Kum Kee Premium Oyster Sauce, Lee Kum Kee Premium Dark Soy Sauce, Shaoxing wine, sugar, and Sichuan peppercorn powder. Stir-fry 2–3 minutes until the pork is glossy and well seasoned.
  4. In a blender, combine silken tofu, peanut butter, Lee Kum Kee Chicken Bouillon Powder, and soy milk. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

  5. Spoon the seasoned pork over the udon, pour the creamy tofu sauce generously over the noodles, then garnish with Lee Kum Kee Chiu Chow Style Chili Crisp Oil and sliced green onions before serving.
