Crispy Marinated Tofu and Vegetables

Method

Instructions

1

Prepare the Tofu

Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into bite-sized cubes.

2

Marinate the Tofu

In a bowl, mix soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add the tofu cubes and toss gently to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.

3

Cook the Tofu

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add peanut oil. Once hot, add the marinated tofu cubes. Cook until they are golden and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

4

Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the sliced squash and shiitake mushrooms. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly charred. Add the Chinese broccoli and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

5

Combine and Serve

Return the crispy tofu to the skillet with the vegetables. Toss gently to combine. Serve hot, garnished with toasted sesame seeds.
