Newsflash! Tofu has become a staple in my dinner repertoire lately. I’m not sure why I haven’t included this power protein-packed addition to my recipes in the past, but now that I have concocted ones like this, it’s a no brainer to throw into the roundup.

Ingredients

Toppings

  • 1 green onion, chopped for garnish if desired

  • ½ cup raw cashews

  • 2 tbsp. maple syrup

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 2 tbsp. hoisin sauce

  • 2 tbsp. teriyaki sauce

  • 3 tbsp. soy sauce

  • 2 tbsp. sweet chili sauce

  • Sauce

  • 3 tbsp. cornstarch

  • 2 blocks of extra firm tofu (350g each), drained

Method

  • 01
    Cut well drained tofu into bite size pieces and place into zipper plastic bag with the cornstarch.
  • 02
    Close the zipper and shake the bag to coat all the tofu pieces evenly.
  • 03
    Heat one tablespoon oil in a non stick pan and add in tofu. Stir fry and toss the tofu until nicely browned and crispy.
