Sticky Orange Tofu with Mixed Stir Fry Veggies
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp tapioca starch
- 1-2 tbsp water
- salt
- orange sauce:
- juice of 2 oranges*
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar*
- 1 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp chili flakes (or more if you like spicy)
- veggies and rice of choice
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400 F/200 C
Mix tapioca starch in a shallow bowl with a bit of water and a pinch of salt
Cut tofu into large bite size pieces and coat them with the mixture
Then place pieces on a lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, flip them over and bake for another 10
In the mean time heat up all ingredients for the orange sauce in a small sauce pan and stir in leftover tapioca mixture. Bring to a boil and keep stirring until sauce is thick and bubbly
While tofu is baking also prepare your veggies and rice
I used Jasmine rice and cooked in my instant pot (6 minutes on manual setting) and stir fried broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas and a red bell pepper in batches in a non stick wok and seasoned them with a splash of coconut aminos
Toss finished tofu with the sauce and serve over rice and veggies
