48 | <p>Just a basic recipe for moderately spicy sauteed tofu, quick and easy | |
3c59982c | 49 | and not too unhealthy. Goes well with steamed broccoli and rice.</p> |
50 | ||
51 | <p>I don't press the tofu as I find when it does it absorbs too much of | |
52 | the marinade and the inside of the cubes just become vaguely vinegary.</p> | |

55 | Ingredients</h2> | |
56 | ||
57 | <ul> | |
58 | <li>14oz (397g) Firm Tofu</li> | |
59 | <li>Oil for sauteeing. Recommend a few tbsp of plain sesame oil with a | |
60 | small amount of toasted sesame oil added near the end.</li> | |
61 | </ul> | |
62 | ||
63 | <h3><a name="sec2" id="sec2"></a> | |
64 | Marinade</h3> | |
65 | ||
66 | <ul> | |
67 | <li>1/2 cup water</li> | |
68 | <li>2.5 tbsp low sodium soy sauce</li> | |
69 | <li>2 tbsp apple cider vinegar</li> | |
70 | <li>2 tbsp pomegranate molasses | |
71 | ||
72 | <ul> | |
73 | <li>Try to find some with no added sugar (hard | |
74 | nowadays!). <a href="http://www.alwadi-alakhdar.com/products/molasses/natural-pomegranate-molasses/">Al Wadi pomegranate molasses</a> is available on Amazon | |
75 | (Bezos wins this round...) if your local market doesn't have any | |
76 | pure pomegranate molasses.</li> | |
77 | </ul></li> | |
78 | <li>4 cloves garlic, minced</li> | |
79 | <li>1/2 tbsp onion powder</li> | |
80 | <li>1/2 tbsp garlic powder</li> | |
81 | <li>1 small serrano or habanero pepper, minced</li> | |
82 | <li>2 tsp corn starch</li> | |
83 | </ul> | |
84 | ||

87 | Sauteed Vegetables</h3> | |
88 | ||
89 | <p class="first">Can really be anything, sautee separately for a few minutes. I like:</p> | |
90 | ||
91 | <ul> | |
92 | <li>1 Sweet bell pepper (red, yellow, or orange)</li> | |
93 | <li>1 bunch green onions</li> | |
94 | <li>Baby Corn</li> | |
95 | <li>Snap peas</li> | |
96 | <li>1/2 medium white onion (cut into 1/2 inch thick slices parallel | |
97 | with rings, then cut each slice in half)</li> | |
98 | <li>1 tbsp chili paste</li> | |
99 | </ul> | |
100 | ||

103 | Rice</h3> | |
104 | ||
105 | <ul> | |
106 | <li>1 cup rice</li> | |
107 | <li>2 whole cloves garlic</li> | |
108 | <li>1/4 tsp tumeric</li> | |
109 | <li>1 tsp paprika</li> | |
110 | <li>1 tsp olive oil</li> | |
111 | </ul> | |
112 | ||
113 | <p>Cook rice on side, using whatever rice you like. Remove garlic before | |
114 | serving.</p> | |

119 | Directions</h2> | |
120 | ||
121 | <ol> | |
122 | <li>Drain tofu and cut tofu into cubes of desired size (1/2 inch suggested)</li> | |
123 | <li>Combine marinade ingredients except for corn starch and freshly minced garlic</li> | |
124 | <li>Cover tofu with marinade, marinate for ~30 minutes, refrigerated</li> | |
125 | <li>Strain tofu, retain marinade!</li> | |
126 | <li>Prepare cornstarch by dissolving in a few tbsp of water</li> | |
127 | <li>Mix retained marinade, cornstarch, and minced garlic well</li> | |
128 | <li>Preheat pan over medium-high heat</li> | |
129 | <li>Add oil and sautee tofu for ~12 minutes, tossing every three or | |
130 | four minutes</li> | |
131 | <li>Lower heat to medium, add sauce, and simmer until sauce | |
132 | thickens (~8 minutes).</li> | |
133 | </ol> | |

137 | TODO</h2> | |
138 | ||
139 | <p class="first">bird's eye peppers instead of serrano/habanero</p> | |
140 | ||
141 | <p>pressing tofu seems to have made it worse; outside of tofu isn't as | |
142 | "chewy" and inside just tasted like marinade and was a bit chewier | |
143 | than I wanted. Skip.</p> | |
144 | ||
145 | <p>In the batch where the tofu was pressed (and I first increased the | |
146 | cornstarch), the sauce thickened in under four minutes and scorched a | |
147 | bit from the heat. Sauce did not thicken quickly in next batch (did | |
148 | not press tofu) — it looks like pressing the tofu caused the tofu to | |
149 | absorb more of the marinade so there was less sauce.</p> | |
