Tofu-Veggie Stir Fry and Gravy Recipe

Tofu-Veggie Stir Fry and Gravy Recipe

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 (14 ounce) can vegetable broth
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced carrot
  • 1 cup chopped red pepper
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup snow peas, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 (12 ounce) package extra firm tofu, diced
  • 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 (8 ounce) can baby corn, drained
  1. Whisk together the cornstarch with water until smooth, and combine with vegetable broth, garlic, onion salt, black pepper, thyme, basil, and parsley in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring the gravy mixture to a simmer, and cook and stir until gravy is hot and thickened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok, and stir-fry the carrot, red pepper, broccoli, and snow peas over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes, until just tender. Stir in the tofu, mushrooms, and baby corn, and stir and cook about 1 more minute, until mixture is heated through.
  3. Pour the gravy over the vegetables and tofu, stir to combine, and serve hot.
