Chinese Takeout-style Tofu And Broccoli Recipe by Tasty image

Steps:

  • Wrap the tofu in 2 layers of paper towels and place on a plate. Put another plate on top of the tofu to weigh it down and microwave for 2-3 minutes, or until drained.
  • After microwaving, carefully unwrap the tofu and slice into ½-1 inch cubes. Pat each cube dry.
  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the tofu and cook on all sides until golden brown, 2-4 minutes per side, then remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add broccoli to the hot pan with the vegetable broth. Cover and reduce the heat to medium-low. Steam for 5 minutes.
  • Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high.
  • Add the garlic, ginger, and remaining ½ teaspoon of sesame oil. Stir until softened.
  • Add the soy sauce, agave, rice vinegar, and cornstarch slurry. Stir until thickened to your desired consistency. Add the sesame seeds and stir to incorporate.
  • Return the tofu to the pan and toss to coat in the sauce.
  • Serve over white rice and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
  • Enjoy!

Steps:

  • Drain the tofu, and then remove excess moisture by cutting it in half lengthwise and microwaving on high, uncovered, for two minutes. Gently squeeze out and wipe off excess moisture, then throw tofu in the freezer for one or two hours before removing to thaw in the fridge -- this will give the tofu a slightly heavier texture.
  • Cut tofu into bite-sized pieces. Combine garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, apple juice, brown sugar, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, water, and soy sauce in a small bowl. Pour half of the mixture over the tofu and reserve the other half for later. Marinade tofu for at least 30 minutes.
  • Drain any excess marinade from tofu (into your reserve marinade for later). Coat tofu pieces in flour. Heat oil over medium heat in a large frying pan and fry tofu until golden brown on all sides. (Add more oil as needed, but cook it all out before proceeding).
  • Add reserved marinade to pan, bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Serve over rice.

12 ounces extra firm tofu
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup apple juice
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
