A quick and delicious dish featuring warm, slightly crisp tofu, tender mushrooms, and vibrant mixed vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block of firm tofu, pressed and cubed
  • 2 cups of mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 2 cups of mixed vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, broccoli, carrots)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
  2. Carefully add the cubed tofu in a single layer. Cook it, turning occasionally, until golden and crispy—about 5 to 7 minutes. Move the tofu to one side of the pan or transfer it to a plate.
  3. In the same skillet, toss in the sliced mushrooms, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms soften and release their moisture.
  4. Stir in the mixed vegetables and pour in the soy sauce. Toss everything together and cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, around 3-5 minutes.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Return the tofu to the pan and give everything a final toss to combine.
  6. Serve hot, adorned with freshly chopped green onions.

Notes

For a chewier texture, substitute firm tofu with extra-firm tofu. Adjust soy sauce to taste and feel free to use any available vegetables.
