Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 14 oz pressed and cubed extra firm tofu and stir-fry for 6-8 minutes until all sides are golden and slightly crispy. Remove tofu and set aside.
- Step 2: In the same wok, add 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 2 minced garlic cloves, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Step 3: Add 1 medium julienned carrot, 1 cup trimmed snap peas, 1 medium sliced bell pepper, and 3 sliced scallions to the wok. Stir-fry vegetables for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
- Step 4: Return the tofu to the wok. Pour in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tbsp sesame oil. Toss everything together and cook for another 2 minutes until the sauce coats the tofu and vegetables evenly.
- Step 5: Remove from heat and sprinkle 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds over the dish before serving with steamed rice or noodles.
