Method
0 of 6 done- Prepare the tofu by pressing it to drain excess moisture. Cut into 1.5 cm cubes.
- Slice the red bell pepper and carrot into thin strips. Chop the spring onions into small rounds and finely mince the garlic clove.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tofu cubes and fry until golden and crisp, about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add the sliced bell pepper, carrot, and spring onions, stir-frying for 3 minutes or until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Return the tofu to the pan and sprinkle with cayenne pepper, stirring to combine. Pour over the soy sauce and continue to stir-fry for another 2 minutes to ensure even coating.
- Season with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
