- Reviews 2
Ready In: 35 mins
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients
- 1 lb baked tofu, pressed
- 8 cups vegetables (options include onions, carrots, peppers, mushrooms, celery, broccoli, asparagus and mung-bean sprou)
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
Flavoring Mixture
- 1⁄4 cup natural soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, mashed
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon gingerroot, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dark-roasted sesame oil
Directions
- Slice the tofu into strips and arrange on a plate with prepared vegetables, separated by variety. (You may be able to buy mixed stir-fry vegetables in packages from your supermarket.).
- Mix the flavoring mixture ingredients until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
- Add the canola oil to a large skillet or wok, place over medium-high heat, and add vegetables. Cook sturdier vegetables first, saving tender ones like bean sprouts and asparagus for later. Stir vegetables constantly, adding a little water if necessary to keep them from sticking or burning.The idea is to produce a mixture in which all the items are crunchy-tender and retain their colors and individual character.
- Add the tofu and the flavoring mixture. Continue to cook over high heat for 1 minute, then serve over rice or noodles.
