GARLIC GINGER TOFU

From All Recipes. I don't think I would cook this for a full 30 minutes. Update: This works as written, but I think it would be easier to marinate the tofu in the ginger, garlic and soy sauce and then add it to a greased pan. Very tasty though.

GARLIC GINGER TOFU WITH MUSHROOMS



GARLIC GINGER TOFU WITH MUSHROOMS image

Categories     Bean     Stir-Fry     Vegetarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic bulbs, minced
1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons inced fresh ginger root.
1 black firm tofu, cut into one inch cubes
1 tablespoon tamari
8 oz baby bella mushrooms

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil and sesame oil in a wok or skillet. Stir in garlic and ginger, and cook for one minute. Add the tofu to the pan with the tamari and stir to coat. Cover and continue to cook for 10-12 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook uncovered for an additional five minutes. Serve with rice

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, organic vegetables and tofu will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the tofu and mushrooms, make sure to give them enough space to brown properly. Otherwise, they will steam instead of fry and become mushy.
  • Use a good quality cooking oil: A high-heat oil like grapeseed or avocado oil is best for this recipe. Olive oil can also be used, but it has a lower smoke point so be careful not to burn it.
  • Season the tofu well: Before cooking the tofu, be sure to season it with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. This will help to enhance the flavor of the tofu and make it more flavorful.
  • Cook the tofu until it is crispy: The tofu should be cooked until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside, but still tender on the inside. This will give the tofu a nice texture and make it more enjoyable to eat.
  • Add the vegetables and mushrooms: Once the tofu is cooked, add the vegetables and mushrooms to the pan. Cook them until they are tender, but still have a bit of a crunch.
  • Stir in the sauce: Once the vegetables and mushrooms are cooked, stir in the sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it cook for a few minutes, until it has thickened.
  • Serve over rice or noodles: This dish is delicious served over rice or noodles. You can also serve it with a side of steamed vegetables.
