Directions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, vinegar, ginger, sugar, and garlic.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add the ground pork and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until brown, 5 to 7 minutes.

- Add the tofu and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.
