Steamed tofu with vegetables is a popular dish commonly found in Chinese restaurants in the USA. Here's a simple recipe to make it at home:

Ingredients:

  • 1 block of extra-firm tofu, drained and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 2 cups of broccoli florets
  • 2 cups of carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 cups of snow peas, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce (optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons of water
  • 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon of sesame oil (optional)
  • Instructions:

    1. In a large steamer basket, place the tofu cubes and steam them for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are cooked through and lightly browned.

    2. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic and stir-fry until they are translucent.

    3. Add the diced bell pepper, broccoli, carrots, and snow peas, and stir-fry for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

    4. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), salt, and pepper.

    5. Add the tofu cubes to the skillet and pour the soy sauce mixture over them. Stir gently to coat the tofu evenly.

    6. Add the water to the skillet and bring the mixture to a simmer.

    7. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a little water to make a slurry. Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir gently.

    8. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

    9. Serve the steamed tofu and vegetables hot, garnished with a drizzle of sesame oil (if using).
