Stir Fry Tofu Recipe
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Tofu is healthy, good for you, and a good substitute for meat as a source of protein. So usually, in American cuisine, if tofu is used, no other meat ingredients are around. However, what’s ironic is that in Chinese cuisine, tofu dishes are usually accompanied by some meat ingredient to kick up the flavour of the tofu, which is what this Stir Fry Tofu Recipe is made of – tofu and meat.

Stir Fry Tofu Recipe

Well, I guess by my own observation, this stir fry tofu recipe is un-American. And what makes the stir fry tofu even more Chinese is the pickled mustard tuber ingredient—no need to freak out. You don’t need the pickled mustard tuber to stir fry your tofu. It just spices up the dish by adding a bit of spiciness and sourness. A pickled mustard tuber is preserved mustard vegetable.

Alternatively, you can use shiitake mushrooms instead of the pickled mustard to add to this stir fry tofu recipe. Or if you want, you can do both. (Don’t be a chicken — try it out and see what you like!)

And one more thing, if you would still prefer tofu without the meat, skip the ground pork. Honestly, I haven’t tried this stir fry tofu recipe without the ground pork, so I’m not sure how that may affect the tofu. It may become somewhat bland–but again, you can try it!
