Peanut Sauce Vegetable Stir Fry With Tofu image

This comes courtesy of the Bob's Red Mill recipe collection. The original version called for serving over quinoa, but since I never have that available and suspect many others don't either, this version I'm posting simply calls for rice. Feel free to serve this over quinoa or whatever grain suits you; soba noodles would probably be great too. Personally, I always omit the mushrooms because of an allergy; the veggies are really just suggestions anyway, so adapt and experiment according to your needs. Chopped peanuts are nice added to this, too, for added crunch. NOTE: Cook time does not include cooking of the rice, since that will vary according to the kind you use.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon oil
1 small head broccoli, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
5 medium mushrooms, sliced
1 (12 -14 ounce) package extra firm tofu, cubed
1/2 cup hot water
1 tablespoon vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 cup peanut butter
cayenne pepper, to taste
3 cups cooked rice

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine peanut butter, hot water, vinegar, soy sauce, and cayenne pepper. (Don't worry if sauce is not entirely blended; heat will melt the peanut butter into a smooth texture when added to wok.).
  • Heat oil in large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Sauté broccoli, pepper, mushrooms, and tofu for 5 minutes.
  • Pour peanut sauce over vegetable-tofu mix. Simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and crisp.
  • Serve over rice, and enjoy!
