1
Prepare the Tofu
Drain the firm tofu and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to firm up.
2
Chop Ingredients
While the tofu is resting, mince the garlic and ginger, chop the green onions, and slice the red bell pepper.

3
Sauté Aromatics
In a large pan or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4
Cook Tofu
Cut the tofu into cubes or slabs as preferred. Add the tofu to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown on all sides.
5
Add Vegetables
Add the sliced red bell pepper and chopped green onions to the pan. Stir-fry for another 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
6
Season the Dish
Pour in the soy sauce and stir well to coat the tofu and vegetables evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

7
Plate the Dish
Transfer the stir-fried bean curd to a serving plate. Optionally sprinkle sesame seeds and chili flakes on top for extra flavor.
8
Enjoy
Serve warm with steamed rice or noodles.
