Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 1/2 block (6 oz) of firm or extra firm tofu, wrap in a paper towel for 5 min to get rid of excess water then cut into 1/2″x1/2″ cubes (If you are using only tofu, use whole 14oz)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp agave nectar, honey, or sugar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (approximately 1 tbsp)
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil
  • 3 cups beech, oyster, or any mushrooms
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • chive sprouts for garnish, optional

Instruction

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add oil and swirl to coat. Add tofu cubes carefully and spread out evenly. Toss or stir around every 2 to 3 minutes so they will brown up evenly. It will take about 7 to 8 minutes total. If it takes too long, increase the heat to high.
  • Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, agave nectar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and minced garlic Then set aside.
  • When tofu is browned on all sides, add mushrooms and combine with tofu. Cook for 3 minutes, but don’t stir too much- this will allow the mushrooms to turn nicely golden brown.
  • Stir in the sauce we made earlier, and cook for about 1 minute. The moisture should evaporate quickly. Remove from heat, and stir in the green onion.
  • Serve with warm cooked rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onion. Add chive sprouts if you have them as well. Enjoy!
