Tofu & Broccolini Stir-Fry

Recipe / Raquel Neofit

I love this stir-fry because it’s so fast and full of flavour! Plus, you can add any ingredients you desire on the day. I love substituting chicken for tofu and throwing in a handful of crisp snow peas.

Serves: 2

3 tbsp tamari
1 tbsp honey
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3cm piece ginger, grated
Freshly ground pepper
1 tbsp oil, for cooking
1 bunch broccolini, sliced through middle
6 spring onions, cut in half & sliced down middle
300g extra-firm tofu, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 red chilli, sliced
1 tsp sesame seeds

Combine tamari, honey, garlic, ginger and pepper in small bowl and set aside.

Heat frypan or wok over medium–high heat and add oil, broccolini and spring onion. Stir-fry for about 2 mins.

Add tofu and sauce and gently stir-fry until tofu is warmed through.

Divide between bowls and top with chilli and sesame seeds. Serve.
