Ingredients

  • 1 head broccoli
  • 14 oz firm tofu
  • 1 large carrot
  • 1 cup bean sprouts
  • 3 stalks green onions
  • ¼ cup peanuts
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Press the tofu for 10 minutes, then cut into 1-inch cubes. Cut the broccoli into small florets and peel the carrot into ribbons.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add tofu and cook until golden on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add remaining 1 tbsp oil to the skillet. Add broccoli and carrot, stir-fry until bright green and tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
