- ⅓ cup ginger finely diced
- ¼ cup garlic minced
- 1 ½ cups diced carrot
- 14 ounce extra firm tofu
- 10 ounce frozen peas
- 24 oz frozen riced cauliflower
- 6 tablespoons gluten free tamari/soy sauce or to taste
- 4 tablespoons sesame oil divided
- salt
Drain the tofu and pat dry with a towel
Heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil in a large skillet on medium high heat
Add tofu and use a potato masher to "scramble" until it resembles eggs
Use a spatula to cook/flip the tofu for 10 - 15 minutes, until browned and beginning to dry
While tofu is cooking, in another large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons sesame oil on medium high heat
Add garlic, ginger, and carrots, and saute for around 10 minutes, stirring often, until carrots are no longer crunchy
Add peas and cauliflower and stir for 10 - 15 minutes, until cauliflower is defrosted
Add in the tofu, 1 teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, and tamari/soy sauce to taste (I used 6 tablespoons of tamari)
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary
