Crispy Sesame Tofu Stir-Fry with Broccoli

★★★★½ (4.7)

Cubes of tofu get pan-fried until golden and crackly, then tossed with crisp broccoli in a sticky sesame-soy sauce for a vegan weeknight dinner that beats takeout. It is a great first recipe for learning how to get tofu genuinely crispy at home.

3 Servings
  • Fully vegan, high in plant protein
  • Genuinely crispy tofu without deep-frying
  • Ready faster than delivery
  • 14 oz firm or extra-firm tofu, drained
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • +12 more ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon fresh herbs
  1. Wrap the block of tofu in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, set a heavy pan on top, and let it press for 15 minutes to squeeze out excess water so it crisps properly instead of steaming.

Continue simmering until the sauce reduces and coats the back of a spoon.

Rest the dish for five minutes before serving with your favorite side.
