BLACK PEPPER STIR-FRIED TOFU AND ASPARAGUS



Black Pepper Stir-Fried Tofu and Asparagus image

This fast, one-skillet stir-fry dinner combines vibrant spring vegetables with hearty tofu in a rich and spicy black-pepper sauce. (Use freshly ground pepper, if possible, for the ideal combination of flavor and heat.) The tofu is simmered in the fragrant sauce, which is spiked with aromatic garlic and ginger until it has absorbed all of the flavors and is nicely glazed. This recipe is perfect for using up that pencil-thin asparagus, which cooks quickly and toes the line between crisp and tender, while sweet snap peas balance out the assertive sauce. The dish can be served over baby spinach or in lettuce cups instead of with rice for a satisfying salad.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons turbinado or light brown sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce or a vegan alternative
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
1 pound firm tofu, cut into ½-inch cubes
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
1 large shallot, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon minced peeled ginger
1 pound pencil-thin asparagus, woody ends trimmed, cut into thirds
4 ounces snap peas, thinly sliced on the diagonal
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
Steamed short-grain brown or white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon black pepper and 2 tablespoons of water. In a large nonstick skillet, combine tofu and half of the black pepper sauce, and season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and nicely coats the tofu, about 5 minutes. Slide glazed tofu and any sauce out onto a rimmed plate.
  • Wipe or rinse out the skillet and heat oil over medium. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add asparagus and snap peas, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add scallions, the remaining black pepper sauce and the tofu, and cook, stirring, until vegetables are evenly coated in the sauce. Stir in cilantro, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Divide tofu and vegetables among plates and spoon over any remaining pan sauce. Serve with rice.

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.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

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.

SHREDDED TOFU AND SHIITAKE STIR-FRY



Shredded Tofu and Shiitake Stir-Fry image

Shredding tofu on a box grater before stir-frying gives it a fluffy, light texture, and the smaller pieces readily absorb the complex, earthy mushroom flavor of the sauce. Unlike with many tofu dishes, you're not looking to sear the tofu here, just to warm it up in the sauce. The caramelized flavor is supplied by the shiitake mushrooms, which should be cooked until they are well browned and crisp-edged. If you can't find fresh lemongrass, you can leave it out.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     quick, weekday, main course

Time 20m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (15-ounce) package firm tofu, drained
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Chinese Shaoxing or dry sherry
Juice of 1/2 lime, plus lime wedges for serving
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons peanut or grapeseed oil
7 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and caps thinly sliced (4 cups)
1/4 cup sliced scallion
1 stalk lemongrass, trimmed, outer leaves removed, inner core finely chopped (optional)
1 (1-inch) knob of ginger root, grated
1 large garlic clove, grated
1 small red chile, seeded and finely chopped
Salt, as needed
1/2 cup shelled edamame (defrosted if using frozen)
1/4 cup chopped soft herbs, such as cilantro, chives or basil

Steps:

  • Using the coarse holes of a box grater, shred the tofu. Spread tofu out on a clean kitchen towel to drain while you prepare the sauce and mushrooms.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Shaoxing, lime juice and sesame oil.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until it's very hot, then add the peanut oil; it should thin out on contact. Once the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and cook, tossing occasionally, until most of the mushroom liquid has evaporated and mushrooms are browned and slightly crisp, 8 to 12 minutes. Stir in the scallion, lemongrass, ginger, garlic, chile and a pinch of salt. Cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
  • Carefully transfer the tofu from the towel into the skillet. Toss in the edamame and the soy sauce mixture. Cook until mixture is heated through. Season with salt as needed. Remove from heat and stir in herbs. Serve with lime wedges.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, main course

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 generously

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound broccoli, crowns broken or cut into small florets, stems peeled and diced
2 tablespoons canola oil or peanut oil
6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps quartered
2 plump garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
6 scallions, white and light green parts only, sliced
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/2 pound firm tofu, sliced and drained on paper towels
1 cup chicken stock or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons soy sauce (more to taste)
1/2 pound soba or udon noodles, or dried rice sticks (soak rice sticks in hot water for 20 minutes)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. Add the broccoli to the boiling water and blanch for 1 minute. Remove to the ice water. Allow to cool, then drain and dry on paper towels. Cover the pot of water and keep hot.
  • Heat a wide, heavy skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the oil. When it is rippling hot, add the mushrooms and sear for 5 minutes, stirring from time to time. Turn the heat to medium, add the garlic, ginger, scallions, and red pepper flakes and cook for another 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. Remove from the heat and transfer the contents of the pan to a bowl.
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat and heat the remaining tablespoon of oil until rippling. Add the tofu and sear on both sides until it begins to color, about 1 minute per side. Add 1 teaspoon soy sauce and stir together. Return the mushroom mixture and the broccoli to the pan. Add the stock and soy sauce, bring to a simmer and turn the heat to low. Simmer uncovered for a minute or two, until the broccoli is crisp-tender, then turn off the heat.
  • Meanwhile, bring the pot of water back to a boil and add the pasta. Cook soba or udon noodles until al dente, about 5 minutes. Cook softened rice noodles for 1 minute. Drain and toss with the mushrooms and the broccoli. Heat through, add the cilantro and sesame oil, toss together, and serve.
