Ingredients

  • 1 package (14 1/2 ounces) firm tofu, drained, cut crosswise into 6 slabs (about 3/4 inch wide), each slab halved horizontally and cut into triangles 1 1/2 pounds broccoli, stalks trimmed, peeled, and cut into 1/4-inch rounds, florets separated into bite-size pieces Coarse salt 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 tablespoons soy sauce 2 tablespoons rice vinegar 1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes 4 garlic cloves, minced 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1/2 cup cashews, toasted

Directions

Arrange tofu in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with several layers of paper towels. Top with more paper towels and another baking sheet; weight with canned goods. Let tofu drain, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook broccoli (stalks and florets) in a large pot of boiling salted water until bright green, 2 minutes. Drain; set aside.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add tofu; cook until golden brown, turning gently halfway through, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to paper towels.

Meanwhile, make sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, vinegar, red-pepper flakes, garlic, cornstarch, and 3/4 cup water; set aside.

Add broccoli to skillet; cook over high heat, stirring often, until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk reserved sauce to combine; pour into pan. Return tofu to pan; stir to coat, about 1 minute more. Serve topped with cashews.

Cook’s Notes To toast the cashews, spread them on a baking sheet and cook in a 350-degree oven for about 10 minutes. If you like a sweet-and-sour flavor, add 1 tablespoon of sugar to the sauce in step 4.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/10/2014   Several brands of gluten-free soy sauce are available on grocery store shelves. San-J and Kikkoman both offer wheat-free or Tamari-style soy sauce.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       06/05/2014   i'm pretty sure soy sauce is made with wheat.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/29/2013   I find the sauce to have too much vinegar for my taste. I will try substituting rice wine (mirin) next time. I do like the method of drying and pan-frying the tofu, so I will try it again, with adjustment.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/05/2011   My mom made this for me and it was AMAZING. Great recipe!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/20/2010   Why would you cook the tofu for 15 minutes when it only takes 1-2 minutes per side to brown? Isn't this a misprint? With this adjustment a delicious dish.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/12/2010   don't think i like tofu. will sub chicken  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/23/2010   i added two extra garlic cloves (as i do with most recipes.. up the garlic count) - and a little extra red pepper flakes to the sauce. this was delicious, and i will definitely make again. my husband agrees.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/09/2009   This didn't turn out very well. The sauce needed some sweetness.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       12/21/2008   I loved this. The flavor was amazing... So even if you haven't mastered the art of cooking tofu, the broccoli with that sauce itself is worth it.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/20/2008   try a little less venegar and add some oyster sauce  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/06/2008   it was EH. the tofu and broccoli cooked very well, and it absorbed the sauce well too. But i didnt really like the sauce very much. It tasted slightly off.
