Ingredients

500g tofu, drained, cut into 15mm cubes
1/3 cup (80ml) peanut or rice bran oil
1 head broccoli, broken into florets
1 large carrot, sliced
¼ cup (60ml) vegetable stock or water
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornflour
steamed rice, to serve

Preparation

Pat tofu dry with paper towel. Heat oil in a small wok on high. Add tofu and shallow-fry for 3-5 minutes, until golden, turning as each side becomes golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Set aside.

Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of oil and reheat wok on high. Add broccoli and carrot and stir-fry for 2 minutes, until tender but still crisp. Combine stock, soy sauce and cornflour and add to vegetables. Bring to boil, stirring.

Return tofu to pan and stir-fry for another minute, until reheated. Serve with steamed rice.

Hot Tips

Choosing and prepping asparagus

Choose asparagus with tight, well-formed heads and avoid any with thin woody, dry and dirty stems. Snap off the woody end of the asparagus by holding the spear in the middle and bend the bottom until it finds its natural snapping point. Discard the woody ends, or use in a stock.

Glossary

Cayenne Pepper

A fiery hot red chilli pepper, sometimes used as a seasoning or flavouring.
