Vibrant vegan tofu stir-fry with ginger, peanut butter, and nutmeg, served over couscous (or swap with pasta or rice).
Ingredients:
  • 10 ounces tofu, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or as needed
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder, or to taste
  • salt and ground pepper to taste
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1 carrot, sliced
  • 8 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 0.5 cucumber, sliced
  • 1 radish, sliced
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg, or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce, divided, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon honey, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1 pinch ground ginger, or to taste
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup couscous
  • 1 tablespoon vegan margarine
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon pistachio nuts, or to taste
Instructions:
  • Combine tofu with fragrant curry powder, a touch of oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper in a bowl. Allow the flavors to meld for 30 minutes.
  • After marinating the tofu, steam the broccoli and carrot in a microwave-safe bowl with 1 tablespoon of water and a pinch of salt, covered, for 2 1/2 minutes.
  • In a wok, heat oil over high heat. Stir-fry spinach, onion, cucumber, radish, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until spinach wilts, about 1 minute. Stir in soy sauce, honey, peanut butter, ginger, and black pepper. Finally, add cooked broccoli and carrot. Cover the wok, reduce the heat to low, and simmer.
  • Sear marinated tofu in a pan with a dash of soy sauce over medium heat until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to the wok with the vegetables.
  • First, bring the water to a boil in a saucepan. Next, add the couscous, margarine, and garlic, and mix thoroughly. Cover the saucepan and allow it to rest until the water is absorbed, approximately 10 minutes.
  • Present a bowl of fluffy couscous generously topped with a flavorful tofu mixture and crunchy pistachios.
