If you think tofu is bland, this recipe will change your mind! Okay so lets get to the recipe instructions and ingredients now

Ingredients

    Instructions

    1. Prepare the Tofu:

      • Gently prick a few holes in the tofu using a toothpick. This helps the marinade soak in for better flavor.
      • Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
    2. Make the Marinade:

      • In a bowl, mix together Shaohsing rice wine, rice vinegar, grated ginger, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, and brown sugar.
      • Toss the tofu cubes in the marinade and let them sit for 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
    3. Stir-Fry the Pak Choi:

      • Heat a wok over high heat and add 1 tbsp of groundnut oil.
      • Once the oil starts to smoke, add the sliced ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds until fragrant.
      • Add the pak choi leaves and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes.
      • Splash a small amount of water into the wok to create steam, then cover and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the leaves wilt and the stems are tender yet crunchy.
      • Season with salt, then transfer to a serving dish.
    4. Cook the Tofu:

      • Rinse the wok under cold water, then reheat it and add the remaining 1 tbsp of groundnut oil.
      • When the oil is hot, add the marinated tofu pieces (keep the marinade liquid aside).
      • Stir-fry for 5-10 minutes, being careful not to break the tofu as you toss it to brown all sides evenly.
      • Once browned, season the tofu with the reserved marinade liquid, and allow it to bubble and reduce slightly.
      • Sprinkle over the dried chili flakes and toss well to combine.
    5. Serve:

      • Spoon the tofu mixture onto the pak choi and serve immediately with cooked jasmine rice.
