Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 14 oz pressed and cubed firm tofu, stir-frying for 6-8 minutes until all sides are golden and slightly crispy. Remove tofu and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Add remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the wok. Add 3 cups broccoli florets and stir-fry for 4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  3. Step 3: Stir in 2 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 3 minced garlic cloves, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Step 4: Return tofu to the wok and add 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tsp sesame oil. Toss everything together for 2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly and coats tofu and broccoli.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and sprinkle with 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 sliced green onions before serving with steamed rice or noodles.
