SPICY VEGAN MANGO AND TOFU STIR-FRY



Spicy Vegan Mango and Tofu Stir-Fry image

This is a vegan sweet and spicy tofu stir fry that was inspired by a dish I get at my local Thai restaurant. I've been working through this recipe for several years now but finally have created something I love. Ensuring all of the ingredients are thinly cut results in uniform cooking as well as a crunchy and addictive texture. This recipe also works great with chicken if tofu isn't your thing!

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

salt
1/2 lb snap peas, ends trimmed, if needed
1 carrot, sliced into long pieces
1 (16 ounce) packet firm tofu, cubed
1 tablespoon black bean sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons canola oil
fresh ground black pepper or cayenne pepper
1 semi-ripe mango, peeled and seeded, plus
1 semi-ripe mango, peeled, seeded, and small diced
1 jalapeno, seeded
2 limes, juice of
1 orange, juice of
10 medium tomatillos, peeled washed, and diced finely
1 medium ripe tomatoes, finely diced
1 red onion, finely diced
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Salsa:.
  • Begin by peeling 1 of the mangoes removing all the flesh possible and discarding the seed.
  • Place the mango pieces in a blender with jalapeno, lime juice and orange juice. Blend until smooth and place in large bowl.
  • Meanwhile peel and remove flesh from the remaining mango and finely dice.
  • To finish the salsa, add the tomatillos, tomato, red onion, cilantro, and the diced mango all to the pureed mango mixture season with salt and pepper.
  • For the tofu:.
  • Fill a large bowl with water and add ice. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the snap peas. Blanch until they brighten and have lost their raw taste, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain the snap peas and transfer them to the ice water. When cold, drain.
  • In a large bowl, combine the tofu, sesame oil, cornstarch, and soy sauce and mix. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a wok or heavy sauté pan over high heat. Add the grapeseed oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the tofu and stir-fry until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the snap peas and the salsa. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe mangoes: Look for mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet, fragrant smell. Avoid mangoes that are too hard or have bruises or blemishes.
  • Use firm tofu: Extra-firm or firm tofu is best for stir-fries because it holds its shape well and doesn't crumble. If you use soft tofu, it will break down more easily in the stir-fry.
  • Press the tofu: Pressing the tofu before cooking helps to remove excess moisture and results in a crispier tofu. To press the tofu, wrap it in a few layers of paper towels and place it on a plate. Place another plate on top of the tofu and weigh it down with something heavy, such as a can of beans or a heavy skillet. Let the tofu press for 30 minutes.
  • Marinate the tofu: Marinating the tofu in a flavorful sauce before cooking helps to add flavor and moisture. You can use a variety of marinades, such as soy sauce, garlic, ginger, or hoisin sauce.
  • Use a hot pan: A hot pan is essential for getting a good sear on the tofu and vegetables. Heat the pan over medium-high heat before adding the oil.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Overcrowding the pan will prevent the tofu and vegetables from cooking evenly. Cook the tofu and vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Stir-fry quickly: Stir-fries are cooked quickly over high heat. This helps to preserve the vegetables' crispness and the tofu's tenderness.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after cooking. This ensures that the vegetables are still crisp and the tofu is still hot and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Mango tofu stir-fry is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of sweet mangoes, savory tofu, and crunchy vegetables is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make a stir-fry that is packed with flavor and nutrients.
