Broccoli Tofu Stir Fry

Langkah-langkah

1. Drain the tofu and pat very dry with a paper towel, changing the towels a few times as needed. Press on the tofu a little to squeeze some water out, but not so hard you cause it to crumble. Cut the block in half right through the middle (as if you were cutting a burger bun), then cut into 1-inch cubes. Place on a large plate or a rimmed baking sheet and lightly pat dry once more.

2. Sprinkle the cubes slowly and evenly with 2 tablespoons of the cornstarch (I like to scatter on 1/2 tablespoon at a time and toss the cubes halfway through). With your fingers, gently toss to coat the tofu as evenly as you can.

3. In a small mixing bowl or liquid measuring cup, stir together the soy sauce, water, hoisin, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and remaining 1 teaspoon cornstarch.

4. In a large nonstick skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the broccoli, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.

5. Add the 2 tablespoons remaining oil over medium-high. Add the tofu in a single layer and cook, tossing every 3 or so minutes, until it is golden on all sides. The tofu may stick together and some bits might crumble a bit. Use a sturdy spoon to break stuck pieces apart and don't worry about any crumbles. They taste extra delicious.

6. Return the broccoli to the pan and pour the sauce over the top. Stir to combine, then let cook until the broccoli is heated through and the sauce has thickened a little, about 1 minute. Stir in the sesame oil and green onion. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Enjoy hot with rice.
