My non-vegan and very-hard-to-impress Chinese mother just told me this is the single best vegan dish she’s ever had. Then she made me teach her how to make it. Then we had it 3 nights in a row.
My daughter in lawas is Mongolian. She was raised in the city but lived with her nomadic relatives in the summers. Nomads do not grow vegetables. Mongolians are heavy meat eaters. I made this dish when I was visiting them and saw the discomfort when I doubled the tofu content (5 adults). My son was raised vegetarian. Long story short, after searching the fridge for left overs the next day (there were none) she asked me for the recipe. Thank you, as do many animals.
I just made this recipe today for lunch (not the first time I make it). I gotta say, that sauce DELIVERS! It's super flavorful and the most complex stir fry one I've ever made. Whenever I'm making a stir fry, I always come back to this sauce, it's that good!
Can you please tell what can be substituted for shaoxing wine/ mirin/dry sherry as we don't get these in Muscat, Oman( middle east). Thanks. Pls reply asap as i really want to try this recipe.
@@neelukampani6548they're quite sweet and thick, so I would use something like the syrup from a can of fruit I think, or maybe white grape juice, I know they have that in LuLu.
Nisha if you made a cookbook I would buy it in a heartbeat!! At this point I eat solely off your recipes 😂 You need a cookbook, your own show, the whole nine yards! 🤩
It is fun and heart-warming to learn new hints and tips. I have cooked stir-fry for a long time, but I learned a few new things. The idea of freezing and thawing tofu to increase the surface area is genius! Also, I learned that adding the corn starch slurry at the end s better than my method of adding it in the sauce. Thanks! I made these tweaks to the recipe when I cooked it today: I added some MSG to the sauce and spice mix. Instead of using a neutral oil, I used toasted sesame oil, a Chinese stir-fry staple which adds a ton of toasty goodness. I had trouble mixing the spice mix in the tofu because tofu is so delicate. I think next time I will either use extra firm tofu or sprinkle the spices over the tofu while it is in the pan. Alternatively, I may also add spices to the sauce or the oil (after lowering the heat). This is the wonderful science and art of cooking!
I really like how you explain the reasoning behind the preparation and technique that you’re using! It’s a lot more educational and allows me to apply the skills I learn from this video in other recipes that I already know when appropriate. Thank you :)
I have been a vegan for a long time and never had any desire to cook tofu. Well, tonight I made your recipe and it was absolutely delicious. My two pre teen children loved it. Thank you for introducing me tofu. Many thanks!🙏
I hope to see your samosa some day. My meat eating family just had dinner with tofu curry from your channel. This is the third time I'm making it, and everyone loves this meal! We live in Bulgaria, but we like indian kitchen a lot. Thank you for your positivity!
Alternate Tofu Technique: That's an interesting trick with pre-freezing the tofu. I learned something new (thank you). Ive been using a different technique (from classic chinese mapo doufu) called "hot shocking" to accomplish the same goal (of weakening the tofu's structure to encourage it to shed water that in turn enables it to better absorb the sauce you serve it in) ... so im definitely looking forward to trying freezing. Anyway, hot shocking involves covering your diced tofu with boiling hot water (just enough to cover), returning it to a brief boil, then covering it and letting it stand off the heat for a couple minutes, then draining all the water and then let it stand (still covered) for another 10-15 mins til it's needed ... then draining off all the liquid that weeped out of the tofu while it rested, which can be upto a quarter of its weight or more. Different technique, similar result. However, I suspect freezing may have an advantage because youre able to weight it. This is why I enjoy seeing how different culinary traditions approach the same ingredients differently ... its insightful. For example, I can already see how this would be really handy for dishes like seared tofu. Cheers ! 😊
I don't keep Shaoxing wine in the house so I substitute with cooking sherry. They have a similar flavor profile so if you only have sherry, just use that.
Ok, this is DELICIOUS! I started following you earlier this summer and I have made several of your dishes. My absolute faves so far are the braised chickpeas, and the crispy, spicy lentils. Now I am adding this dish to the list! I have sooo many cookbooks, but I will 100% happily add yours to my collection because know how to COOK! :) Thanks so much. I am not fully vegan myself, but I am eating plant-based for health reasons and knowing that food which nourishes and heals us can and should be delicious is such a secret weapon in that situation. All of the best luck to you, and with your book. I wish you somuch success!
Love these week night videos! I've attempted a few of your more involved dishes and they were delicious 😋 but it's great to have something that doesn't take long. And I usually have these ingredients lying around.
I love how you say “so colorful and pretty”, you enjoy what you do and that makes this recipe so much better! I’ve made this for my Mamá, and she loved it, she’s now considering going vegetarian, because of this dish, it’s a good start, right? Thank you so much for what you do, Nisha!
The detailed explanations you put into your videos are so helpful and clearly a sign of true dedication and passion for teaching how to cook delicious healthy plant-based recipes. It's quite unique among TH-cam cooking channels, especially the vegan ones. Thank you for delivering such valuable content!
Terrific idea & recipe that looked simple to cook! I most definitely will incorporate the ingredients that you used to make it look tasty and presentable. Lastly, I love how the colors of the vegetables made it very yummy visually!! ❤🫶🏽👍🏾🙌🏾
I've made this about 5 or 6 times for my friends and everybody loves it. Today I made just the tofu and used it in vietnamese spring rolls, much recommended!!
I made this last night and just had to come and share my experience. It took me about an hour to prep since I've never cooked anything this complex, and I wanted to make sure I did it right. I followed the instructions to a T, and it was the best meal I've ever made. I typically just make like steak and home made fries in the air fryer or veggie burgers or chops and veggies... but this... this was a party in my mouth! I'm definitely adding this to my cook book and will be watching more of your videos for more recipes!!!
I've just cooked this despite my part being resistant to the tofu. Oh WOW both of us loved this. Tasty, tangy, sticky loveliness. Definitely one I will cook again and again. Thank you 😊❤
Absolutely my favourite cooking channel, for sure. Thanks for all the JOY and INSPIRATION. Sri Chinmoy: "Make healthy choices, perfection will be yours." Much love and gratitude from Koala-Land 🐨
I didn't realize that Soeos makes a Shaoxing Rice Wine, getting the aged one today as I'm doing some online shopping, so glad I saw this video ( their Chinkiang Black Vinegar is amazing btw) and I already have a Five Spice Powder from a previous tofu recipe of yours which was incredible, will be making this dish asap. Thank you :)
I always make this! You can also use the sweet and sour sauce (replace Hoisin Sauce with Ketchup and plum sauce), and it will be sweet and sour tofu!!!
Oh yessss, I absolutely enjoy your enjoyment 😊 I love the way you describe your dishes, put them together, taste them - and most of all, share them with us with such enthusiasm!! Your ebullience makes me want to try every dish right now!
Just tried this tonight. Had to make a few substitutions to make up for ingredients I didn't have but WOW the flavors explode and come together beautifully!!! Thanks for your videos. I'm looking forward to trying more of your recipes
Just made this with the vegs being only baby bok choy, julianned carrot, celery, onion and broccoli. Truly, tremendously delicious....the five spice took it over the top. Thank you sooo much for sharing this recipe.😊
Oh myyyyy, yessss. I made this for my family tonight! It is so delicious!!! I have "baby-mouth" so 1 tbls of sambal was ENOUGH, so yummy! I added onions because I'm an onion nut, and it was an excellent addition. The tofu is especially delicious and you're right about the texture after freezing/thawing. It's chewy and a most perfect bite. Yummy, yummy, yummaaaay!!!!!!
thank you for this actually quick tofu recipe, i’m always looking for those but good ones are so hard to find!!! i can’t wait to add this to my rotation!!!
Hi Nisha! I made this a few weeks ago and it was INCREDIBLE. I'd never cooked tofu before, but your instructions made it super easy and it came out delicious. Definitely going to be making it again in the future!!
Your videos are sime of the best cooking (especially vegan) videos I have watched. I'm currently travelking overseas and don't have access to a kitchen, but when I get back home I'm going to try all these delicious recipes, but using whole grain rice etc instead of ptocessed white.
I love your channel I have been watching your videos I've made a few of your recipes. I have been on a wonderful health journey going on 4 years now since I have become a vegetarian. I am going to make this recipe tonight for dinner for my family. They will enjoy it.I have all of the ingredients and thank you for sharing.
just saw your recipe & tried it right away! I used a tablespoon of Sriracha for the sauce, which was definitely hot enough for me haha used zucchini, mushrooms & little tomatoes, and Bulgur as a base, which tasted nice altogether :)
freezing my tofu now.. never have I bought tofu in the store and so this is my first time making it. produce guy was patient w me finding things that are new to me.. im excited to try this tonight!!
Yassss👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥 of course I will be making this soon, duh! Lol. Cutting the tofu in thin squares instead of cubes is GENIUS!!! I was sold on the sauce when you said hoisin. Can't wait!! 🤤👌
Looks good, thanks, I will make it in the weekend. Just one note, despite the nice flavor, peanut oil is highly inflammatory, like sunflower oil...better to use cold pressed flax oil and non heated, just a bit at the end
This recipe was a good inspiration for today's cooking. But I used soja chunks instead of tofu because I had no tofu in stock. My vegetable were bell pepper and zucchini. For the sauce I mixed sweet thai chili sauce with sambal olek and garlic paste and used sherry and mirin instead of chinese wine. It was really delicious so I will try it again with tofu for sure. Thanks a lot for this and the other amazing recipes...
I've watched thousands of cooking videos and this is literally the first time i see someone using a construction tape measurer for food thickness hahahah made me burst in laughter ( 3:56 )
I made it. I was missing fresh garlic 😢powdered worked. I used red and yellow pepper with baby bok choy, celery, onion,and fresh ginger and parsley. Ooops, I forgot the sugar. It was good. My sauce was not bad, I used oyster sauce and lite soy sauce. Tofu was fun cutting it thin and used 5 spice with extra turmeric. Thanks for the inspiration. I eyeballed a lot. I used my Hexclad large skillet and it was good. Husband enjoyed. Crazy voices, so cute. Thanks again.
This looks SO AMAZING. I miss tofu so much (I developed a pretty rough soy sensitivity a bunch of years back). Slowly trying to see if I can mend my tolerance... this will be the first thing I try when I get daring enough to bring tofu back
Blessings from Chicago. I just got some red lentil tofu from Alpen-Glow at the farmers market. I will use this recipe to introduce my new tofu to family that can't have soy. I have alternatives to the sauces. Thank you for this one. I'll add beech mushrooms.
Loved the editing in this video.. so funny! Also I’ve never known anyone to get as excited about food as much as I do!! I literally do the same as you, so excited to eat when something comes together so well and is packed with flavour. This stir fry looks and sounds amazing!! Thank you for sharing your fab recipes! 😊
I’m overdue for a tasty stir fry!! Will make tonight..and because I’m extra lazy..the tofu is going in my air fryer while the veggies cook. Don’t forget the chili crunch!!!
Wow, I ate until it hurt then carried on a bit. Very nice recipe, that sauce is soooo good I will no doubt be using it with other things. Thanks for posting this thoroughly enjoyable meal. Sweet, spicy, aromatic. No meat required.
This is one of your best videos. And that's saying something because there are many 🙂 tofu tip esp useful. Thank you ❤ If you get time can you do a follow up with how you cook your rice in the instant pot shown in this video? I have the same model instant pot but never figured it out (they don't seem to include instruction manuals any more?!) 🙏
I recently listened to The Exam Room Podcast with Chef Bay. She said she sometimes presses her tofu and then freezes it before use..and, it gives it a more meat-like texture. I'm going to try it with your recipe here!
I drained, then cut, then froze the tofu for an hour, then thawed for 30 mins and dipped it into the cornstarch mixture and it clung really well. The tofu was amazing, better than potato chips. This was the first time I could actually eat tofu.

Thats kinda crazy to hear since so many dishes in Chinese cuisine are naturally vegetable-front facing and/or use tofu.
My daughter in lawas is Mongolian. She was raised in the city but lived with her nomadic relatives in the summers. Nomads do not grow vegetables. Mongolians are heavy meat eaters. I made this dish when I was visiting them and saw the discomfort when I doubled the tofu content (5 adults). My son was raised vegetarian. Long story short, after searching the fridge for left overs the next day (there were none) she asked me for the recipe. Thank you, as do many animals.
I’m very late to seeing this comment but I have to say it made my day! Thank you for sharing that with me ❤❤❤
Im still learning to like tofu cant seem to find a recipe I like and without so much oil & cornstartch 😅

This was amazing! Took me a lot longer to make bc I was so slow to cut my veggies/press my tofu, but it was amazing!
I don't keep Shaoxing wine in the house so I substitute with cooking sherry. They have a similar flavor profile so if you only have sherry, just use that.
If you struggle peeling ginger, its super easy to do with a spoon. You just scrape da kine right off. Takes seconds. Scrape scrape scrape all pau.
The sauce to this recipe is incredible. Definitely making again!
