Spicy Tofu Stir-Fry

I have been wanting to do a stir-fry for FOREVER. But, alas, Chris was adamant that he hates them. I finally decided I wanted to make one so bad that I put it on the weekly menu, told him it wasn't your average stir-fry, and he would like it. Sure enough, he liked it. I loved it. The best part, from start to finish it took less than 3o minutes! Including chopping all the veggies :)

Spicy Tofu Stir-Fry
What You Need:

  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 1/2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1 onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup cut cauliflower 
  • 1 cup cut broccoli
  • 1 package firm/extra firm tofu, diced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
The Process:
  1. Heat the wok/pan until very hot. Add the cumin and coriander, and dry-fry the spices for a minute. Add the oil with the garlic, ginger, and chilli powder. Stir-fry briefly. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the cauliflower and broccoli, and stir-fry until they are cooked through but still crisp. Add the tofu and lemon juice and toss well until it is coated with the spices. Serve hot.
