Ingredients
- 2 extra-firm tofus (14 ounce, pressed and cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 3 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 pound cremini mushroom (sliced)
- 2 yellow onions (large, sliced)
- 6 clove garlic (minced)
- 3 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 0.75 cup soy sauce
- 0.75 cup vegetable broth
- 6 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 6 cup white rice (uncooked)
- 12 cup water
- 2 pound broccoli florets (fresh)
- 1.5 pound carrot (sliced)
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
Instructions
- Pat the 2 (14 ounce) blocks extra-firm tofu cubes very dry with paper towels. Toss with 3 tablespoons cornstarch until evenly coated.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu in a single layer and cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove tofu from skillet and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add 1 1/2 pounds sliced cremini mushrooms and 2 sliced yellow onions. Cook until softened and lightly browned, about 5-8 minutes.
- Stir in 6 minced garlic cloves and 3 tablespoons grated fresh ginger and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup soy sauce, 3/4 cup vegetable broth, 6 tablespoons honey, and 2 tablespoons rice vinegar to make the stir-fry sauce.
- Pour the sauce into the skillet with the vegetables. Bring to a simmer, then return the cooked tofu to the pan. Toss to coat and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Meanwhile, cook 6 cups white rice according to package directions using 12 cups water. While rice cooks, steam 2 pounds fresh broccoli florets and 1 1/2 pounds sliced carrots until tender-crisp.
- Season the stir-fry with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve the Korean Tofu & Mushroom Stir-Fry over white rice, with the steamed broccoli and carrots on the side.
