Easy Tofu Stir Fry
The kids decided on which vegetables they wanted in their stir fry and helped me prepare it. They were delighted with the result and I knew they were getting a very nutritious meal. In this recipe I used the following
Broccoli florets
Cauliflower florets
Carrots cut into batons
Baby sweetcorn
Red peppers cut into strips
Grated root ginger
2 cloves garlic crushed
Lemon juice
Fine rice noodles
Marinated tofu (I used Cauldron)
Mung beans
Pumpkin seeds
Tamari sauce (Tamari is wheat free soy sauce)
Prepare the rice noodles according to the instructions on the packet. In a large frying pan or wok, stir fry the broccoli, cauliflower and carrots in a little olive oil for 5 minutes. Add the peppers, baby sweetcorn and lemon juice. Stir fry for a few more minutes. Then add the grated root ginger and garlic with the tamari sauce. I love Tamari so I use quite a bit. You may add a little water if it starts to stick. Add the tofu, rice noodles and stir well together making sure everything is hot throughout. Add the mung beans and finally the pumpkin seeds for that extra crunch.
