Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Drain the firm tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Cut it into 1-inch cubes.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to create a smooth sauce.

  4. 4

    Slice the Green Onions

    Chop the green onions into thin slices, separating the white and green parts.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Cook the Tofu

    Heat a non-stick pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add a little oil if necessary. Once hot, add the tofu cubes and fry until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 6

    Stir-Fry the Vegetables

    In the same pan, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Stir-fry for 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, and snow peas. Stir-fry for another 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

  3. 7

    Combine Tofu and Sauce

    Return the cooked tofu to the pan with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over the stir-fried vegetables and tofu. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  4. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve hot over rice or noodles if desired.
