Steps:

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cornstarch to the tofu in a small bowl and toss to coat. Add the tofu to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 6 minutes. While the tofu is cooking, combine the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, water and brown sugar. Mix well. When tofu has browned, add the sauce, stir, then bring to a simmer before reducing heat to low. Simmer for 5-10 minutes, until sauce has thickened and reduced. Serve over rice and garnish with green onion.

1 Block Extra Firm Tofu, pressed and cubed (to press, place the tofu block on a plate and cover with a few paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Place a heavy pan on top of the towel for at least 30 minutes.)
2 Tbsp. Cornstarch
2 tsp. Sesame Oil (or Olive Oil)
1/2 tsp. Fresh Ginger, grated
3 Cloves Garlic, minced
1/2 Cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1/2 Cup Water
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Green Onion, chopped

VEGAN/VEGETARIAN PF CHANG'S MONGOLIAN BEEF (TOFU)

If you love PF Chang's Mongolian Beef, you'll love this vegan version. I make it for veg and non-veg people, and everyone agrees it's fantastic. I use organic and fresh versions of all of the ingredients. It's just better that way! Also, I have a big family, so this recipe makes a lot of food. Make it like it is and save some for lunches (it keeps well), or just make half the recipe if you don't want leftovers.

Steps:

  • Remove tofu from water and thoroughly pat with paper towels to dry.
  • Slice tofu in half lengthwise, then quarter it by cutting it in half along the narrow sides. You will have four rectangles. Keep them together, then begin slicing 1/4" slices from the narrow end. You should end up with lots of pieces that measure just over 1" long and about 3/4" wide.
  • Put these pieces on a plate, sandwiched between paper towels, and press them dry. This should get most of the water out.
  • Heat sesame oil in a deep skillet over low/medium heat.
  • Add ginger and garlic to the pan and lightly sautee for about 30 seconds. Do not scorch the garlic.
  • Add soy sauce and water.
  • Dissolve the brown sugar in the liquid, then raise the heat to medium high and boil sauce for about three minutes. It will thicken slightly.
  • Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  • Put tofu strips inside of sauce and marinate them for 30-60 minutes. You can start your rice during this step, if you plan to use brown rice.
  • Use a colander to gently strain the liquid from the tofu. Keep the liquid in a bowl for the next step.
  • Add cornstarch to liquid and dissolve.
  • Gently place the tofu back into the skillet (or in a wok, if you'd like) and brown it on medium. Don't turn it too often, or it will break. You can add a small amount of sesame oil to help it along.
  • Add green onions, peppers and mushrooms to the skillet or wok.
  • Pour sauce into the veggie mixture and heat, just until it's nice and hot.
  • Serve over brown rice or pad thai noodles.

3 tablespoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
2 tablespoons garlic, chopped
1 cup low sodium soy sauce
1 cup water
1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar
2 (14 ounce) containers extra firm tofu
1/4 cup cornstarch
4 large green onions, cut into 1-2-inch slices
1 large red bell pepper, cut in to long slices lengthwise (optional)
10 ounces mushrooms, quartered (optional)

  • Press the tofu using a tofu press or a heavy can and paper towels. Just place the tofu between a few pieces of paper towel and place on heavy can on top. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes to remove some of the excess liquid. This will help the tofu get nice and crispy. Then cut into 3/4-1 inch cubes.
