Ingredients

  • Tofu
  • 12 oz 350 g firm or extra firm tofu, cubed ½-3/4 inch thick
  • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • Teriyaki Sauce
  • cup low sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ tablespoon of honey or agave nectar if you want more sweetness use about 3 ½ tablespoon
  • 1 ½ tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon black strap molasses
  • 4 medium cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon Arrow root powder/ Cornstarch
  • Stir-Fry
  • 2 tablespoon oil
  • 4 ½-5 cups broccoli florets and stalks, chopped (about ½ lb/225 g)
  • 2 teaspoon water
  • ½ medium large red bell pepper diced
  • ½ medium green bell pepper diced.
  • ¼ cup raw cashews
  • ¼ cup green onions sliced ( I didn’t used it)
  • 1 carrot sliced into thin strips

Instructions

  • In a shallow dish, add tofu. Pour soy sauce and vinegar over tofu and marinate for 10 minutes or longer. I marinated for about 30 minutes. (Flip tofu at least once while marinating).
  • While tofu marinating in a large bowl, whisk all ingredients for teriyaki sauce until arrowroot powder is dissolved (or put it in a blender to puree). Heat the sauce and until the mixture get thickened little bit.
  • In a large frying pan or wok on high, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add tofu and sauté for 4-5 minutes, and then turn over to sauté for another 3-4 minutes, until lightly brown on each side. Remove from pan and set aside. Reduce heat to medium, add 1 tablespoon oil to wok, and add broccoli, carrot, bell pepper and water. Toss, cover and cook for 4-5 minutes, until broccoli turns bright green. Add teriyaki sauce and increase heat to high. Toss to coat, and let sauce come to a slow boil. As soon as sauce has reached a slow boil and has thickened, add tofu, cashews and green onions (if using), and toss to combine. Remove pan from heat and serve immediately.
