Teriyaki Tofu and Veggie Stir-Fry Recipe
- 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari
- 1/4 cup mirin
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 14 ounces firm tofu, cut into 1-inch chunks
- Canola oil
- 1/2 pound broccoli florets
- 2 carrots, trimmed, peeled, and cut into matchsticks
- 1/2 pound sugar snap peas, trimmed
- 2 green onions, sliced, for garnish
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish
- Steamed rice, for serving
- To make the sauce, in a saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, ginger and garlic.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the mixture becomes slightly syrupy, about 5 minutes.
- Let cool.
- In a bowl, toss together the tofu and 1/4 cup of the teriyaki.
- Heat a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat, then add a glug of canola oil.
- Add the tofu, spread into an even layer, and cook, letting at least one side sear, until nicely browned, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a bowl.
- Add a little more oil and add the broccoli and carrots.
- Stir and toss the vegetables until just barely tender, then add the sugar snap peas.
- Stir and toss the vegetables until crisp-tender, then add the reserved tofu and remaining teriyaki sauce to the wok.
- Stir and toss until the tofu is warmed through.
- Transfer to a serving bowl or platter and garnish with the green onions and sesame seeds.
- Serve with the rice.
