Juicy spicy tomatoes with tofu

I know every country has their own version of Tomatoes and tofu dish.

But this one is what I personally like.

If you have a bag of Japanese 7 spices chili and don't know what to cook with.

Try this one.

If you don't have 7 spices chili, just skip it or add any other chili.

Here I usually use a flavorful roasted sesame oil.

Season it with a pinch of sugar and a drizzle of soy sauce.

But don't mix them too well.
