Yield

4 Servings

Ingredients

1 pound tofu (extra-firm)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1⁄2 cup bell pepper, red (diced)
1⁄2 cup carrot (peeled and julienned)
1 cup peas, snow (strings removed)
4 green onion
1 tablespoon ginger, fresh (peeled and minced)
1 clove garlic (peeled and minced)
1 teaspoon tamari
1⁄4 cup orange juice
1⁄2 cup stock, vegetable
2 tablespoons miso, white

Instructions

Pat tofu dry with a paper towel, then cut into 1-inch cubes. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu to the pan and pan-fry for 2 minutes or until starting to brown. Turn the tofu pieces and cook to brown on all sides, then remove and set aside. In the same skillet, heat sesame oil and sauté the red pepper and carrot for about 2 minutes. Add the snow peas, green onions, ginger and garlic and cook another 2 minutes. Add the tofu back to the pan along with the tamari, orange juice and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook a few minutes, stirring to coat the vegetables and tofu. Turn off the heat, add the miso and stir well.
