CRISPY TOFU AND CABBAGE STIR-FRY



Crispy Tofu and Cabbage Stir-Fry image

This tumble of crisp tofu, charred cabbage and citrusy coriander includes a couple tricks you'll want to employ in other dishes. The flavor of the stir-fry is propelled by using the coriander plant multiple ways: Combining coriander seeds with fresh stems and leaves - also known as cilantro - creates a range of complex but related flavors. Then there's what might be the quickest - and your new favorite - way to cook cabbage: When large pieces of cabbage are cooked undisturbed in a hot pan, they don't have a chance to turn to mush. Instead, the cabbage becomes sweet and crisp-tender, with a smoky edge. Eat the stir-fry with grains or noodles, like rice noodles or soba.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small red onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 (14-ounce) package extra-firm tofu, patted dry and torn into 1-inch pieces (see Tip)
1/4 cup neutral oil (such as canola or grapeseed), plus more as needed
About 1 1/2 pounds green or red cabbage, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces, leaves separated
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or liquid aminos, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon coriander seeds, crushed
1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro leaves and stems
2 tablespoons lime juice (from 1 large lime)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, sprinkle the red onion with salt and stir to combine. In a medium bowl, stir together the cornstarch and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the tofu and toss to coat.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add the cabbage and cook, undisturbed, until charred underneath, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir, spread into an even layer, and cook, undisturbed, until charred in spots and crisp-tender, another 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce, and season with salt. Transfer to the bowl of red onions.
  • In the same skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high. Add the tofu and cook until golden on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side, adding more oil and scraping the bottom of the pan as necessary. Remove from heat, add the coriander seeds and stir gently until fragrant and toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the cabbage-onion mixture and stir to combine, then stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Season to taste with soy sauce.

Tofu, Cauliflower, Cabbage and Onion Stir-Fry W/ Coconut Peanut image

This dish has a mild flavor, but if you'd like something with a stronger flavor it would be easy to spice up. Serve it by itself, with noodles or rice, or wrapped in a tortilla

Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 30m

STIR-FRIED TOFU AND PEPPERS



Stir-Fried Tofu and Peppers image

This attractive stir-fry is inspired by a traditional Chinese dish called rainbow beef. The vegetarian version works well, and it's also easier to make. If you prefer a very firm tofu, take the extra time to weight it as directed in step 1. I am happy to skip this step and use firm tofu that hasn't been weighted.

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 pound firm tofu
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable, peanut or canola oil
2 teaspoons hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 red bell peppers, seeded and cut in 1-inch squares
1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut in 1-inch squares
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 large garlic cloves, green shoots removed, minced
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes (to taste)
2 scallions, white and green parts, cut on the diagonal into 1-inch lengths
Cooked rice or noodles for serving

Steps:

  • Optional step for firmer tofu: Blot the tofu dry, wrap in a clean kitchen towel and place a cutting board on top. Let sit for about 15 minutes. Whether weighted or not, slice the tofu about 1/2 inch thick into 1- x 2-inch dominoes.
  • Mix together 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium bowl. Toss with the tofu, and stir to make sure all of the pieces are coated. Let sit for five to 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the remaining soy sauce and sugar, hoisin sauce and sesame oil. Set aside.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates on contact. Add the oil, turn the heat to medium-high and add the peppers. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes, until the peppers begin to soften, and add the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 20 seconds, until the garlic and ginger begin to smell fragrant, and add the tofu, dried red pepper flakes and green onions. Stir-fry two minutes, give the sauce a stir and add to the pan. Cover and cook for three minutes. Remove the lid, stir the ingredients in the pan, and taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with rice or noodles.

CAULIFLOWER & TOFU CASSEROLE



Cauliflower & Tofu Casserole image

This recipe is delicious. I doubt you could fool a tofu-phobic as the pieces are visible, but it really is a nice recipe. The original recipe (found at http://www.soscuisine.com) doesn't call for cheese, but I've included it because it adds that extra touch.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 cups cauliflower, cut into into bouquets (800g)
11 white mushrooms, sliced thinly (150g)
2 tablespoons olive oil, seperated (30ml)
1 1/2 tablespoons prepared parsley, Garlic and Parsley Base (23ml)
1 onion, finely chopped (200g)
300 g firm tofu, in small cubes (1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup canned tomato, drained (diced or stewed -130g)
4 teaspoons tomato paste (20ml)
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce (10ml)
2/3 cup vegetable broth (170ml)
2/3 cup green peas, frozen (80g)
1/2 cup milk (or less - 125 ml)
4 teaspoons butter (18g)
salt and pepper, to taste
1 1/2 cups cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 205°C/400°F.
  • Boil cauliflower boil 10-15 minutes until very tender. Drain well and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan, over medium-high heat, until hot but not smoking. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until water from mushrooms has evaporated (approximately 3 minutes).
  • Add Recipe #369266 and cook another 2 minutes, stirring. Add salt and pepper to taste and remove from fire. Set aside (but keep it warm).
  • Heat remaining oil in another pan, over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until transparent (approximately 3 minutes). Add tofu and cook another 2-3 minutes, stirring, until cubes are beginning to colour.
  • Add tomatoes, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce and broth. Add frozen peas and mushrooms. Pursue cooking another 4-5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remover from fire and pour in a large baking dish.
  • Heat butter and part of the milk in the microwave until very hot. Add to cauliflower and mash, until consistence is creamy. Add more milk if necessary. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cover tofu mixture with cauliflower puree, spreading evenly over top.
  • Bake in the centre of the oven 25-30 minutes until top starts to brown.
  • Remove from oven. Switch oven temperature to "broil" and add cheese over top of casserole. Return to oven. Watching carefully (this can go quickly), bake until cheese is bubbly and turning brown. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, organic vegetables and high-quality tofu will make a big difference in the flavor of your stir-fry.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too many ingredients to the pan at once, they will steam instead of stir-frying. Cook the vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or skillet: A well-seasoned pan will help prevent the food from sticking.
  • Stir-fry over high heat: High heat will help to create a nice sear on the vegetables and tofu.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender-crisp. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland.
  • Add the sauce at the end: Adding the sauce at the end of the cooking process will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fry is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

This tofu, cauliflower, cabbage, and onion stir-fry with coconut-peanut sauce is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner. The stir-fry is packed with vegetables and protein, and the coconut-peanut sauce adds a delicious and creamy flavor. With a few simple tips, you can make a stir-fry that is both flavorful and healthy.
