Ingredients
- 400 grams firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon ginger
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 150 grams broccoli florets
- 1 medium carrot
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
Press the tofu for about 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes.
Step 2
In a bowl, mix the tofu with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch until evenly coated.
Step 3
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu cubes and stir-fry until golden and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove tofu from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Add sliced red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and thinly sliced carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Step 6
Return the crispy tofu to the skillet and pour the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce over the stir-fry. Toss everything together to coat well.
Step 7
Add chopped green onions and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Stir-fry for another minute.
Step 8
Remove from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious stir-fried tofu!
