Yield servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

SAUCE
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons molasses
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
SAUTE
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 stalk broccoli
2 teaspoons ginger, divided
4 cloves garlic, divided
16 ounces cubed tofu
2 cup thinly sliced onions
1 cup chopped cashews
2 teaspoons fresh pepper
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 minced scallions

Steps:

  • In small saucepan, whisk together almond butter and hot water until you have a uniform mixture. Whisk in remaining sauce ingredients and set aside. Sauté: Stir-fry half the ginger and half the garlic in 1 tablespoon oil. Add the tofu chunks, stir-fry for 5-8 minutes. Mix with the sauce and sauté for a minute or two more, then remove and set aside. Wipe the wok clean (optional), then sauté the remaining ginger and garlic in 2 tablespoons oil. Add the onions and fresh pepper; sauté for about 5 minutes. Add chopped broccoli, cashews and soy sauce; stir-fry until broccoli is bright green. Toss the sauté with sauce and tofu, mixing in the minced scallions as you toss. Once mixed, you're done. Serve over rice. (Note: You can replace the broccoli with snow peas and the peanut butter with almond butter.)
