Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams extra firm tofu
- 200 grams broccoli florets
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 1 large carrot
- 150 grams snap peas
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 3 units garlic cloves, minced
- 2 units scallions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess liquid. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the tofu cubes in a single layer, and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the grated ginger and minced garlic, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets, sliced bell pepper, sliced carrot, and snap peas to the pan.
Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
Return the tofu to the pan. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Stir everything well to combine.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Remove from heat, and garnish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your high protein classic vegetable stir fry!
