Ingredient notes
Tofu: Firm tofu (not extra firm) is the best type of tofu for this recipe. Peanut butter: I use creamy peanut butter to make Asian peanut stir fry sauce. However, it’s also fine to use crunchy peanut butter. Try using a peanut butter with no added sugar and salt.
Step 2: Remove the towel and cut the tofu block into bite-size cubes. Add oil, salt, and pepper. Toss. Step 3: Spread the tofu cubes on a baking tray lined with a baking sheet. Step 4: Bake in a pre-heated oven for 12-14 minutes at 200°C (400°F). Steps 5 and 6: Heat oil in a wok. Add broccoli florets and saute on a medium flame for around 10-12 minutes. Transfer them to a bowl and keep aside. Steps 7 and 8: In a bowl, mix peanut butter, minced ginger and garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, chili sauce, vinegar, sugar, chopped red chilies, and some salt. Mix everything. Step 9: Heat a wok and add peanut butter mixture to it. Add around ¼ cup of boiling water. Step 10: Mix everything and cook until the peanut butter melts and the sauce starts simmering. Steps 11 and 12: Add baked tofu and broccoli. Steps 13 and 14: Mix everything. Step 15: If the sauce is very thick, add some hot water to get the desired consistency. Step 16: Garnish with roasted peanuts, sesame seeds, and chopped scallions. Your delicious stir-fried tofu broccoli in peanut sauce is ready to be served. You can also enjoy it with noodles but it tastes better with rice.
