2 cloves, minced garlic
1 tbsp, grated fresh ginger

1 tsp cornstarch
2 tbsp water

Step 1: Heat 1 tsp sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 2: Add 14 oz cubed tofu and cook for 5-6 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides.
Step 3: Push tofu to one side of the skillet, then add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger to the empty space. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4: Add 2 cups broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender.
