Answer 2

I made a great pro, pan cooked tofu the different day that i individually enjoyed. First I cooked the tofu in a saute pan, 2 or 3 minutes on the two sides, then I extra onions, garlic, carrots, zucchini, and squash to the pan and enable those all prepare dinner down. I sprinkled some salt, pepper, rosemary, and lemon juice over all of it, and at it with some couscous. It became relatively, relatively good.

Asian Noodle, Tofu, and Vegetable Stir-Fry:

Stir-fries feel so easy and undemanding. This one is even more so because it has cellophane noodles right in it, making it a one-dish meal. Soaked dried mushrooms add flavor to the stock.

2 ounces uncooked bean threads (cellophane noodles)
1/2 ounce dried wood ear mushrooms (about 6)
1 cup boiling water
2 teaspoons peanut oil or vegetable oil
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
1 tablespoon minced seeded jalapeño pepper
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups (1/4-inch) diagonally sliced carrot (about 1 pound)
1/4 teaspoon salt
7 cups (1-inch) sliced bok choy
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 (12.3-ounce) package reduced-fat firm tofu, cubed
3 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil or chili oil

Place noodles in a large bowl; cover with warm water. Let stand 20 minutes. Drain; set aside.

Combine the mushrooms and boiling water in a bowl; let stand for 20 minutes. Strain through a sieve into a bowl, reserving the mushroom liquid. Cut mushrooms into strips.

Heat peanut oil in a wok or nonstick Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion, jalapeño, ginger, and garlic; stir-fry for 1 minute. Add mushrooms, carrot, and salt; stir-fry 2 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup reserved mushroom liquid; cover and cook 3 minutes or until carrots are crisp-tender and liquid evaporates.

Add bok choy; stir-fry 1 minute. Stir in noodles, remaining mushroom liquid, soy sauce, and tofu; cook for 2 minutes.

Combine 3 tablespoons water and cornstarch; pour into pan. Bring to a boil; cook 2 minutes or until slightly thick. Drizzle with sesame oil.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 2 cups)
