INGREDIENTS
1 block (approx. 300g) extra firm tofu
1 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tsp minced fresh ginger
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp rice vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil
100g broccoli
100g red bell pepper
1 medium carrot (approx. 50g)
1 handful snap peas (approx. 50g)
PREPARATION
Press the extra firm tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
In a small bowl, whisk together minced ginger, garlic, low-sodium soy sauce, and rice vinegar.
Gently toss the tofu cubes in the marinade ensuring they are evenly coated. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the marinated tofu and toss to lightly coat each piece.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the tofu cubes. Cook, turning occasionally, until they are golden and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.
While the tofu cooks, prepare the vegetables. Cut the broccoli into florets, slice the red bell pepper into strips, and julienne the carrot. Keep the snap peas whole.
In a separate large pan or wok, lightly stir-fry the vegetables over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes until they are crisp-tender.
Once both the tofu and vegetables are cooked, combine them in the wok. Drizzle with sesame oil and gently toss to mix and heat through.
Serve the crispy sesame ginger tofu alongside the vibrant stir-fried vegetables while warm.
