Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, pressed and cubed
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (for crispy tofu, optional)
  • 2 tbsp oil (sesame or vegetable)
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup carrots, julienned
  • 1/2 cup snap peas or zucchini, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tsp ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce or teriyaki sauce (optional)
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • 1 green onion, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Prepare the tofu: Press excess moisture out, then cube and toss with cornstarch for extra crispiness (optional).
  • Cook the tofu: Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook until golden brown on all sides (about 5-7 minutes). Remove and set aside.
  • Sauté the vegetables: In the same pan, add another tbsp of oil. Stir-fry bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, and snap peas for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add flavor: Stir in garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and hoisin sauce. Toss in the cooked tofu and mix well.
  • Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve over rice or noodles if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add chili flakes for a spicy kick.
  • Serve this dish with rice, quinoa, or noodles for a complete meal.
  • The hoisin sauce adds a sweet and savory flavor, but you can skip it for a lighter version.
