- 1 (400 g) block firm tofu (or extra firm tofu)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch (or potato starch)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons oil (such as avocado oil, divided)
- 1/2 medium/large head broccoli (cut into small florets)
- 1 red bell pepper (sliced)
- 3 cloves garlic (grated/minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated/minced)
- 1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable broth (or water)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or another sweetener)
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon sambal oelek (or hot sauce, optional)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (or potato starch)
- Cooked white or brown rice (or noodles)
- Sesame seeds
- Green onions (chopped)
- Red pepper flakes
First, press the tofu for 15-20 minutes using a tofu press or by wrapping it in a clean kitchen towel and placing it under a heavy pan and/or a few heavy books.
Meanwhile, cut the broccoli into small pieces, slice the pepper, and finely chop the garlic and ginger.
Next, cut the tofu into 2 cm cubes and mix in a bag with starch, salt, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Shake until well coated.
Place all the sauce ingredients in a jar, shake or whisk well, and set aside.
Heat a large non-stick pan or wok over medium-high heat with oil. Once the pan is hot, add the tofu and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning to brown all sides. Then, transfer to a plate.
Add a bit more oil to the pan and sauté the broccoli and pepper for a few minutes until crisp-tender.
Add the chopped garlic and ginger and sauté for a minute, then pour the sauce into the pan and simmer until thickened.
Remove from heat and add the tofu, stirring well to coat with the sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Enjoy!
