Prepare your steaming vessel. Steam the tofu for 3-5 minutes. Drain excess water.
While the tofu is steaming, add some oil to a wok or pan. Over medium heat, fry the garlic and white parts of the green onion until fragrant. Do not burn the garlic.
Turn the heat to medium high, add the pork and fry until almost cooked. Add the oyster sauce, soy sauce, caramel sauce, sugar and white pepper. Let the pork soak in all the flavor.
Once pork is cooked, add the water and bring it to a boil. Once boiled, turn the heat to medium and add the cornstarch slurry. Stir the mixture until the sauce thickens. If you want it thicker, add more cornstarch slurry (keep in mind that the sauce will thicken more once cooled). Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. (It’s ok for it to be slightly on the salty side as the tofu has no seasoning whatsoever).
Pour pork mixture over steamed tofu. Garnish with green onions and fried shallots. Serve immediately with warm steamed rice.
