Ingredients

300g firm tofu

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 small brown onion, diced

½ cup Asian greens, chopped e.g., Bok Choy

1 tbsp ginger, grated

1 clove garlic, crushed

1 tsp rice vinegar

3 teaspoons tamari

1 teaspoon sesame seeds

  3. Add mushrooms and greens, cooking for 5 minutes or until soft.
  4. Next add the tofu and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally stirring.
  5. Add rice vinegar, tamari and five-spice powder. Stir well to coat the vegetables and tofu.
  6. Divide tofu scramble into two bowls. Garnish with sesame seeds and spring onion or coriander.
