Method
Preparation
Prepare the Tofu
Drain the tofu and press it between paper towels or a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
Chop the Vegetables
Wash and chop the vegetables into uniform pieces for even cooking. Set aside.
Mince the Garlic and Ginger
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves and ginger.
Cooking
Sauté the Tofu
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed tofu and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown on all sides.
Cook the Vegetables
Add the chopped vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Season the Dish
Pour the soy sauce over the tofu and vegetable mixture. Stir well to combine and let cook for another 2 minutes.
Finish and Serve
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the dish and toss to combine. If using, add chili flakes and chopped green onions. Serve hot.
