Notes: To thaw beans quickly, pour into a colander and rinse with hot water. Serve this stir-fry with cooked rice. Ingredients:
1/2 cup fat-skimmed chicken broth or vegetable broth |
2 teaspoons white wine vinegar |
2 teaspoons soy sauce |
1 teaspoon cornstrach |
1/4 teaspoon hot chili flakes |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 package (12 oz.) frozen shelled soybeans, thawed (see notes), or 2 1/4 cups refrigerated cooked shelled soybeans. |
12 ounces firm tofu, rinsed and drained |
1 clove garlic, peeled and minced |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger |
salt |
Directions:
1. Rinse and drain tofu. Cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices and pat dry with paper towels then cut into 1/2-inch cubes. 2. In a 1-cup glass measure, mix broth, vinegar, soy sauce, cornstrach, and chili flakes until smooth. 3. Set a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over high heat. When hot, add 1 teaspoon oil and the soybeans, stir until beans are hot and their skins are slightly blistered, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour into a bowl. 4. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil, the ginger, and garlic to pan; stir just until garlic begins to brown about 15 seconds. Add tofu to pan and stir occasionally until tofu is hot and lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Return beans to pan. Stir broth mixture and add to pan; stir until sauce boils and thickens. Add salt to taste. Pour into a serving dish. |
