3. Add Heat: Stir in the sliced bird’s eye chili, adjusting the amount according to your spice preference. Allow the chili to infuse its heat into the mixture for about a minute.

4. Cook the Shrimp: Next, add the shrimp to the pan. Cook until they turn pink and opaque, which typically takes just a few minutes.

5. Combine Ingredients: Once the shrimp are cooked, gently fold in the fried tofu cubes. Add enough water to create a saucy consistency.

6. Season the Dish: In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a bit of water to create a slurry, then pour this into the pan. Season with black pepper, mushroom broth, salt, and sugar, stirring gently to combine. Be careful not to over-stir, as you want to keep the tofu intact.

7. Finish with Broccoli: Finally, add the broccoli florets to the pan. Allow everything to simmer for a few minutes until the broccoli is tender yet still vibrant in color.

8. Taste and Adjust: Before serving, taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

9. Serve: Your Broccoli Tofu with Black Pepper Shrimp is ready to be served! This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed rice, allowing the flavorful sauce to soak in. Enjoy your culinary creation!
