  • 1 Tsp Sweet chili sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Mirin
  • 2 Tsp Rice syrup

Instructions

  1. Begin by cutting the tofu in to long blocks. Next, marinate the tofu with both soy sauces, rice syrup, mirin, black bean paste and the gochujang for an hour. Set aside.

    Heat half of the sesame oil in a wok on medium high heat. Once simmering, add the tofu and cook on both sides for approximately 2 minutes to crisp up. Remove from wok and set aside. Add the remaining oil, and cook the onions for 3 minutes. Next, add the bok choy and matchstick carrots and cook for 3 more minutes. Add in the remaining vegetables and cook for 2 minutes. Now, add in the remaining sauce ingredients and cook for 2 - 3 minutes. Add the tofu back in and cook for 2 minutes to warm and to mix everything well.

    Plate over white rice and top with green onions. Enjoy!
