HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Press the tofu between paper towels for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into 1-inch cubes.

02

Whisk together the soy sauce, vegetable broth, minced ginger, garlic, and cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth.

03

Heat half of the sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu and sear until golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.

04

Remove tofu from the skillet and set aside. Add the remaining oil and snap peas to the pan, stir-frying for 3 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.

05

Return the tofu to the pan and pour the sauce mixture over the ingredients.

06

Toss everything together for 2 minutes until the sauce bubbles, thickens, and coats the tofu and peas evenly.

07

Serve immediately over steamed brown rice or quinoa.

COOKING TIP

Make it better

For extra crispy tofu, toss the cubed tofu in a tablespoon of cornstarch before searing. Ensure your skillet is hot enough before adding the tofu to prevent sticking.

SUBSTITUTIONS

Easy swaps

Replace snap peas with broccoli florets or sliced bell peppers. Use tamari instead of soy sauce to make this recipe gluten-free.

STORAGE

Keep it fresh

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water to loosen the sauce.
