Ingredients
 

  • 1 block Firm Tofu, cut into cubes
  • 450 grams Bean Sprouts
  • 1 whole Bell Pepper, sliced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2-3 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 inch Ginger, minced
  • 1 tbsp Sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp Cooking oil
  • 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1 Onion, sliced
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat 1 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until all sides are golden brown and crispy. Remove the tofu from the pan and set it aside.
  • In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they start to soften and become translucent. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and cook until fragrant.
  • Add the sliced bell pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender. Then, add the bean sprouts to the pan and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until they start to soften but still have some crunch
  • Return the crispy tofu to the pan. Add 2-3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and heat everything through.
  • Sprinkle with toaster garlic and add chili oil if desired. Serve hot with rice or noodles.

Notes

  • Flavor Building:
    • Start by cooking the protein first until it’s golden brown. Remove it from the pan, then add aromatics like garlic and ginger before introducing the bean sprouts.
    • Timing is key! Add the bean sprouts last to keep them crisp.
  • Seasoning Balance:
    • Adjust the soy sauce and oyster sauce to your taste. If you prefer a sweeter profile, add more oyster sauce.
    • For extra heat, incorporate more chili oil, but remember to start with a small amount and taste as you go.
