Today’s Unique Creation: Spicy Tofu Stir-Fry

Greetings, foodies! Today I’m excited to share with you a recipe for a spicy tofu stir-fry that is perfect for when you’re in the mood for something flavorful and satisfying. This dish is a unique combination of bold spices and textures that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you feeling fully satisfied. Let’s dive right in!

Ingredients:

  • 200g firm tofu, cubed
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sriracha sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • Handful of cashew nuts
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • Cooked rice, for serving

Kitchen Tools:

  • wok
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • grater
  • measuring spoons
  • spatula

To start, heat some oil in a wok over medium heat and add in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté until fragrant, then add in the cubed tofu and cook until slightly browned on all sides. Remove the tofu from the wok and set it aside.

In the same wok, add a bit more oil if needed and toss in the sliced bell peppers and onions. Cook until they start to soften, then add back in the tofu. Pour in the soy sauce, sriracha, sesame oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and chili flakes. Stir everything together until well combined and let it simmer for a few minutes.

Once the sauce has thickened slightly, add in the cashew nuts and green onions. Give everything a final stir and take the wok off the heat. Serve the spicy tofu stir-fry over a bed of cooked rice and enjoy!

This spicy tofu stir-fry weighs approximately 800g in total and serves 4 hearty portions, with each serving clocking in at around 300 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to marinate the tofu in a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger for an hour before cooking. This will infuse the tofu with even more flavor and make it extra tasty.

I hope you give this spicy tofu stir-fry recipe a try and feel free to customize it with your favorite veggies or additional spices. Happy cooking!
