Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Press the tofu

Drain the tofu and press it between two plates with a weight on top for 10-15 minutes to remove excess liquid.

2
Cut the tofu

Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes.

3
Prepare the broccoli

Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets.

4
Prepare the sauce ingredients

Mince the garlic cloves and grate the ginger. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water until the cornstarch is dissolved.

5
Cook the tofu

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the tofu from the wok and set aside.

6
Stir-fry the broccoli

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they turn bright green and are crisp-tender.

7
Add garlic and ginger

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes to the wok. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

8
Add the sauce and tofu

Pour the sauce mixture into the wok and stir to coat the broccoli. Return the cooked tofu to the wok and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and the tofu is heated through.

9
Serve hot

Serve the tofu and broccoli stir-fry hot, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
