Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 head cauliflower, chopped
1/8 head cabbage, chopped into squares
1 onion, chopped
450 g extra firm tofu
2 cups coconut milk
3/8 cup soy sauce
4 tablespoons peanut butter
4 teaspoons sesame oil
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • Chop up the cauliflower, cabbage, and onion (approx 1" squares).
  • Cube tofu into bite-sized pieces.
  • Toss tofu in flour, fry in a little hot oil until brown. Remove from pan and drain on absorbent paper. Add onion to frypan and cook until transparent.
  • Wipe out frypan with paper towel.
  • Whisk together the coconut milk, soy sauce, peanut butter, toasted sesame oil, minced garlic and chilli in a bowl. You will need to break up the peanut butter with a fork first because it will stick to the whisk.
  • Pour the coconut peanut sauce into the frypan and heat until bubbling.
  • Add the vegetables to pan and reduce heat to simmer.
  • Allow the dish to simmer covered on the stove for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the lid and let simmer for 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add cooked onion and crispy tofu to pan and simmer for a further 5 minutes.
  • Serve on a bed of steamed rice or noodles (or you can wrap in a tortilla).

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.
