GINGER TOFU WITH BROCCOLI, PEAS & CARROT

 

A colourful vegetable stir-fry with golden tofu, fresh ginger and a squeeze of lime.

Serves 2 | About 25 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 teaspoons Just Ghee Organic Ghee
• 200g firm tofu, drained, patted dry and cubed
• 200g broccoli, cut into small florets
• 1 carrot, thinly sliced
• 100g frozen peas
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon reduced-salt soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons water, plus extra if needed
• A squeeze of lime or lemon

METHOD:

1. Melt the ghee in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.

2. Add the tofu and cook for 5–6 minutes, turning gently until lightly golden.

3. Add the ginger and stir for 30 seconds.

4. Add the broccoli, carrot and water. Cover and cook for 4–5 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.

5. Add the peas and soy sauce. Cook for another 3–4 minutes, stirring and adding a splash of water if needed.

Enjoy on its own for a lighter meal, or serve with rice.

The vegetables provide fibre, particularly the peas, while tofu adds plant protein.
