A delicious, crispy, and savory high-protein tofu stir fry packed with fresh vegetables and a flavorful ginger-garlic sauce.

Ingredients

Scale

16 oz extra firm tofu, pressed and cubed
2 cups broccoli florets
1 medium carrot, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp ginger, grated
1.5 tbsp cornstarch
3.5 tbsp low sodium soy sauce (divided)
0.5 tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp maple syrup
1 tbsp avocado oil
4 tbsp water (divided)
0.5 tsp chili flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toss cubed tofu with 2 tbsp soy sauce and cornstarch until evenly coated.
  2. Heat avocado oil in a pan and fry tofu until golden and crispy on all sides. Remove from pan.
  3. In the same pan, add water and sauté broccoli and carrots for 5 minutes until crisp-tender.
  4. Stir in minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Whisk remaining soy sauce, sesame oil, maple syrup, and water to create the sauce.
  6. Add tofu back to the pan, pour the sauce over everything, and toss until the sauce thickens and coats the stir fry.

Notes

  • Always press your tofu for at least 15 minutes to ensure the crispiest texture.
  • For a keto version, omit carrots and use a sugar-free sweetener.
