    Tofu, broccoli and a few ingredients for the sauce is all you need to make this easy low carb recipe:

    • Tofu - We use a firm tofu for this recipe as it's preferable for stir fries.

    • Red chili flakes - adds a touch of extra heat.
    • Coconut oil - Sesame oil could be substituted.

    HOW TO MAKE BROCCOLI TOFU STIR FRY

    The key to a crispy tofu stir fry it to ensure that the tofu is pat the press the block and ensure that it is dry before cutting.

    We place the tofu block in between two plates and kitchen towel with a heavy weight on top to remove excess water.

    Once the tofu is dry, cut it into squares and chop the broccoli. Make the stir fry sauce ahead of cooking the tofu and broccoli so you just need to add it to the cooked items.

    VARIATIONS

    This is a great dish that you could add other ingredients to. A few ideas are:

    • Mushrooms
    • Chopped almonds or walnuts
    • Kale in place of broccoli

    SERVING SUGGESTIONS

    Although this is a great dish by itself, turn it into a hearty meal by serving it with cauliflower rice or low carb noodles.

    COOKING TIPS

    Use the almond butter at room temperature so that is melts in the sauce quicker.
