Ingredients:

• 1 block of firm tofu, drained and cut into cubes
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 1 medium onion, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon agave or maple syrup
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
• Cooked rice or noodles, to serve

Start by pressing the tofu to remove any excess water. You can do this by wrapping the tofu in a clean towel and placing a heavy object, such as a cast-iron skillet, on top for about 15-20 minutes.

Once the tofu is pressed, cut it into cubes and toss it with the cornstarch until fully coated.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Once hot, add the coated tofu cubes and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.

Remove the tofu from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onions and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are slightly softened.

Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for an additional minute until fragrant.

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, agave or maple syrup, salt, and pepper.

Add the sauce to the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Add the tofu back to the skillet and toss it with the vegetables and sauce until fully coated.

Serve your Vegan Tofu Stir-Fry over cooked rice or noodles and garnish with sliced green onions.

Enjoy your delicious and healthy vegan tofu stir-fry! This recipe is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner and can be customized with any vegetables or sauces you prefer.
