Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1 large red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and julienned
- 2 large broccoli heads (about 1 pound total), cut into small florets
- 1⁄2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
- 1 pound non-GMO firm tofu, drained and crumbled
- 2 tablespoons wheat-free tamari
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1⁄2 cup vegetable broth or filtered water
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot
- 2 tablespoons filtered water
- 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds
- 1⁄4 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
Method
Step 1
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the peppers and broccoli, toss to combine, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the ginger and cook for 1 minute. Then add the crumbled tofu and stir until the tofu is well combined.
Step 2
Add the tamari, vinegar, and broth, and bring to a simmer. While the tofu cooks, combine the arrowroot with the water and pour the mixture into the pan. Stir well and simmer for another 2 to 3 minutes to allow the liquid to thicken.
Step 3
Step 3: Divide the tofu among four bowls and serve immediately, garnished with the sesame seeds and cilantro. This dish serves up nicely with the Cauliflower Rice.
