Crispy Tofu With Veggie Stir Fry Recipes

SIMPLE STIR FRIED CRISPY TOFU AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place the block of tofu on a large flat plate, place a second plate on top, with the bottom against the tofu (use plates flat enough to lie cleanly against the top and bottom of the tofu). Place a heavy book or a big can of beans or tomatoes or such on top of the top plate and let drain for about 45 minutes.
• Drain off the liquid that has escaped out onto the bottom plate, and cut up the tofu according to the recipe. You can leave the tofu for longer, but not much more liquid will be released. Cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes.
• Heat a wok or a large skillet with a lid over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil. When hot, add the tofu and sauté, stirring every two minutes or until the tofu is lightly browned , about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Heat the remaining two tablespoons of the oil in the same wok or skillet over high heat. Add the mushrooms and saute for 3 minutes until they start to turn tender and golden. Add the broccoli, bell pepper, zucchini and stir-fry for 5 minutes until they start to soften. Add the scallions, ginger and garlic and stir-fry for 2 more minutes until everything is almost tender, then add ¼ cup water, and cover the pan. Allow to steam for another 2 minutes until the vegetables are crisp tender.
• Remove the lid, add the hoisin sauce and soy sauce and stir to combine everything well. Serve hot.

CRISPY TOFU AND VEGGIE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Preheat air fryer to 375°F. Cut tofu horizontally into three planks. Use a heavy plate to press tofu planks between two cotton towels about 25 minutes, removing as much liquid as possible. Sprinkle tofu planks all over with the 3 Tbsp. sesame seeds. Line air fryer trays with foil. Arrange trays in air fryer. Air-fry 12 to 15 minutes or until browned and starting to crisp, turning tofu once and rotating trays if necessary. Cut tofu into bite-size pieces.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl stir together the next five ingredients (through arrowroot powder). In a large skillet cook vegetables over medium 5 to 7 minutes or until almost tender, stirring occasionally and adding water, 1 to 2 Tbsp. at a time, as needed to prevent sticking. Add sauce and cook just until thickened.
• To serve, top rice with vegetables and tofu. Sprinkle with scallion and toasted sesame seeds.

VEGETABLE STIR-FRY WITH CRISPY TOFU-ATK

Steps:

• Spread tofu on paper towel-lined baking sheet, let drain for 20 minutes, then gently press dry with paper towels. (Tip: Freezing then defrosting the tofu in its original package allows for easier release of the liquids as described after draining.).
• Working in batches, use food processor fitted with slicing blade to process mushrooms, carrots and pepper until thinly sliced; set aside. Process bok choy in now‐empty processor until thinly sliced; set aside.
• Fit again‐empty processor with chopping blade and pulse tofu until coarsely chopped, about 5 pulses, stopping to redistribute tofu as needed. Line baking sheet with clean paper towels, spread tofu on sheet and press gently with more paper towels to dry. Transfer tofu to bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons cornstarch.
• Pulse ginger and garlic in again‐empty processor until finely ground, about 8 pulses. Transfer ginger mixture to small bowl and stir in 1 teaspoon vegetable oil. Whisk soy sauce, sherry, sugar, sesame oil, orange zest and juice, and remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch together in separate bowl.
• Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in 12‐inch nonstick skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add tofu in single layer and cook, breaking up any clumps with wooden spoon, until well browned, 8 to 10 minutes; transfer to bowl.
• Heat remaining 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in now‐empty skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add mushrooms, carrots, and bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until spotty brown, about 4 minutes. Push vegetables to sides of skillet. Add ginger mixture and cook, mashing mixture into skillet, until fragrant, 15 to 30 seconds. Stir ginger mixture into vegetables.
• Add bok choy and cook until just wilted, about 1 minute. Whisk sauce to recombine, then add to skillet along with tofu. Cook, tossing constantly, until sauce is thickened, about 30 seconds. Off heat, sprinkle with peanuts and scallions. Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Prepare the rice according to the package directions. Peel and finely grate the ginger and put it into a small baking dish or medium bowl along with the soy sauce, garlic chili sauce and sesame oil. Whisk to combine.
• Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Cut the baked tofu into 1-inch-by-1/2-inch pieces and add to the marinade. Stir to combine and reserve. Fill a small measuring cup or bowl with cold water and keep by the stovetop.
• Add the canola oil to the hot pan and swirl to coat. Add the shiitake mushrooms and cook until tender and browned in spots, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Add the stir-fry vegetable mix and a large pinch of salt. Cook until crisp tender, 3 to 5 minutes (the cooking time will depend on the size of the vegetables in the mix). If at any time the pan seems too hot, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Add the marinated tofu to the vegetables along with 2 tablespoons water. Cook until the tofu is warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the stir-fry to a large platter. Scatter the cashews on top and serve alongside the rice.
