per person
125g plain tofu
Teriyaki marinade
1 inch fresh ginger, chopped and crushed with the back of a wooden spoon
1 clove garlic, chopped and crushed with the back of a wooden spoon
3-4 florets of broccoli, sliced fairly fine
half red pepper, roughly chopped
3-3 spring onions, sliced
handful beansprouts
vegetable oil
soy sauce
toasted sesame oil
ground black pepper
ground chilli (optional)
lime juice to serve
Cut the tofu into 1 inch chunks and marinate in the teriyaki for an hour or so. I used bought teriyaki marinade for ease, but you can make your own from soy sauce, sugar and vinegar.
Heat a little oil and fry the marinated chunks on a high light until well browned. Drain on kitchen paper.
Let the wok cool, then wipe out the burnt oil. Heat a little more oil, and stir-fry the ginger, garlic, broccoli and peppers over a high light. After 1-2 minutes add the spring onions, beansprouts and tofu. Cook for another minute or two.
Shake in some soy sauce and sesame oil. Grind in black pepper, and chilli if you like. Squeeze on a little lime juice, and serve immediately with rice or noodles.
