Equipment

Ingredients

  • 10 oz. tofu extra firm
  • 1 head broccoli
  • 10 oz. mushrooms
  • 1 tbsp. ginger minced
  • 1 tbsp. garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp. sesame oil

Sauce

  • 2 tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. Teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tsp. Maple syrup or brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. Miso
  • ½ tsp. Chilli flakes
  • 2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 1 cup water

Garnish

  • Chilli flakes
  • Chopped scallion
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Mix together all the ingredients for the sauce. I admit that I love miso and hence I use it in all my my stir fries. But you can totally skip that. Mix together soy sauce, vinegar, teriyaki sauce, miso (if using), maple syrup, ½ tsp. Chilli flakes or pepper along with cornstarch to form a thick sauce. Add 1 or 2 cups water as well.
  • One commenter who tried the recipe mentioned that they doubled the sauce ingredients as they found it a bit dry. You can go ahead and do that too. Or add 1-2 cups water when mixing the sauce.
  • Heat sesame oil in a skillet and add ginger and garlic. Fry for 30 seconds and add broccoli and tofu. Just mix together and let them get coated in oil.
  • Add in half the sauce prepared and mix well. Cover and cook for about 6-8 minutes till the broccoli is tender. Add in the mushrooms and the rest of the sauce and cook for a couple of minutes.
  • You will have a thick sauce more like a glaze. Add water if you want it slightly runny. I leave it as is. It is done. Garnish with scallion greens, sesame seeds and more chilli flakes.
  • Your broccoli, mushroom and tofu stir fry is ready to serve. Enjoy.

Notes

1. You can store this stir fry in an airtight container in the fridge for upto 3 days. Reheat and serve.
2. Adjust sauce as per your taste. If you like it more sweet, add more maple syrup. Reduce chilli flakes to reduce heat.
3. Use firm tofu and press it well to remove all the water before using. It does not break apart.
4. You may use other veggies like peppers, green beans, bok choy in this recipe.
