Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium carrots, julienned
  • 2 cups green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup firm tofu, cubed
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (plus extra for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients by julienning the carrots and slicing the cabbage. Press tofu to remove excess moisture and cut it into cubes.

  3. Add tofu cubes in a single layer; sear until golden brown on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
  4. Stir in garlic and ginger; cook for 30 seconds before adding carrots and cabbage. Stir-fry for about 4 minutes until veggies are tender yet crisp.
  5. Whisk together soy sauce and rice vinegar; pour over the stir-fry and toss to coat evenly.
  6. Cook for an additional minute, then serve hot with an optional drizzle of sesame oil.
