Tofu and vegetable stir-fry with fresh coriander

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Main Courses Quick Meals
The essence of stir-frying is speed and high heat. The goal is for the vegetables to remain crisp and brightly coloured, and for the tofu to get a crust but remain creamy inside. This isn't a stewed ragout, but a meeting of fresh textures in a salty-sesame sauce.

⚠️ Soya
⚠️ Sesame

Instructions

1 ✓

Wrap the tofu in kitchen paper, place a weight on it for 10 minutes to press out the water. Dice it.

Tip: If you leave water in it, it won't brown, just steam, and won't absorb the sauce.
2 ✓

Cut the vegetables into uniform, bite-sized pieces. Break the broccoli into small florets.

Tip: Uniform size guarantees even cooking.
3 ✓

In a hot wok with a little oil, fry the tofu until golden brown, then remove.

Tip: Leave it alone to fry, don't keep shaking it, so it gets a crust!
4 ✓

Add more oil to the wok, throw in the hard vegetables (carrot, broccoli), fry for 2 minutes. Add the softer ones (pepper, courgette), then the ginger and garlic.

Tip: Garlic and ginger burn the fastest, so we don't put them in at the beginning.
5 ✓

Put the tofu back, drizzle with the soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss together for 1 minute.

Tip: Sesame oil gives the 'finishing' aroma.
6 ✓

Serve sprinkled with plenty of fresh coriander.

Tip: Heat destroys the flavour of coriander, only add it when serving!

Recipe FAQ

The tofu crumbled.
You bought tofu that was too soft (silken), or didn't press the water out of it. Use 'firm' tofu!
