INSTRUCTIONS
Freshly ground pepper & salt
Tofu supplies the protein, and tastes similar to chicken breasts, in
this quick-to-prepare colorful vegetarian main dish.
Drain tofu, cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Place between layers of paper
towel and weight down with a dinner plate. Let stand 10 minutes to
compress and remove excess water.
Heat oil, 2 tbsp broth and ginger in a frypan. Add celery, onion
and red pepper. Stir cook over medium heat 3 minutes. Add bean
sprouts, continue stir-cooking 1 min.
Stir in remaining broth, soy sauce and tofu. Cook and stir gently
over medium heat until vegetables are tender-crisp, and liquid is
evaporated. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
