Ingredients

Sauce:

  • 1 tbsp light (regular) soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp dark soy sauce (or an extra tablespoon of regular soy sauce)
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp maple syrup or sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1/2 tsp vegetable bouillon paste or 1/2 a crushed vegetable bouillon cube

Stir Fry:

  • 1–2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 4 scallions, sliced with whites and greens separated
  • 1 red chili pepper, sliced (optional)
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed or grated
  • 1/2 inch ginger, grated or minced
  • 1, 450g block of super firm tofu (or extra firm tofu, pressed and drained)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 cups green cabbage, shredded

Instructions

  1. Sauce: In a small bowl, combine soy sauces, rice wine vinegar, sweetener, sesame oil, and vegetable bouillon. Whisk together and set aside.
  2. Stir Fry: Heat avocado oil in a large skillet. Sauté white parts of scallions and chili pepper. Add garlic and ginger, sauté until fragrant. Crumble tofu into the pan, add paprika and coriander. Sauté until coated, then add cabbage.
  3. Stir fry until cabbage softens, about 4 minutes. Pour in the prepared sauce, combine and cook until absorbed.
  4. Serve with rice or noodles, garnish with scallions.

Notes

  • You can customize the spiciness by adjusting the amount of chili pepper used.
