It later occurred to me that this should probably be served on a grain (like brown rice, or maybe quinoa) but it was way too late for that. I'm serving with lettuce and arugula... since that's what I've got
For the Wok:
1 T olive oil
1 package firm tofu, frozen, thawed, drained, and cut into cubes
2 T tamari (for the tofu, you'll need more for the sauce)
4 cloves garlic
1 t red pepper flakes
1 huge bunch (2 lbs) Tatsoi (or Bok Choy, they're apparently very similar) - separate the white stems from the greens, and chop the stems into bite size pieces. You should also chop the greens, but keep them separate (they cook at different speeds)
3/4 lb spinach
For the Sauce:
1 T sesame oil
2 T peanut butter
1 T brown rice vinegar
Sauce - which is doubling as salad dressing today. |
1/2 c chopped cilantro
1/2 c chopped green onions
Heat the oil, toss the tofu in the soy sauce (frozen-thawed tofu soaks it up in seconds). Let it sit and brown, toss it, let it sit in brown. (I chopped the white parts of the tatsoi while it browned.) Add the garlic and the pepper flakes, stir a minute, add the white parts of the tatsoi.
Clean and chop the green parts of the tatsoi, add them. Do the same with the spinach. (Spinach wilts faster than other greens so I added it last.)
Turn off the heat when you add the last of the spinach, stir, and cover.
Whisk together the sauce ingredients, and poor over and stir into the greens and tofu.
Add cilantro and onions.
Be amazed at how little food you got out of so much vegetable!
Will you be able to fit your entire farm share into your suitcase?
ReplyDeleteSorry to disappoint, but my plan is to eat the entire box before I leave on Thursday evening. Based on the progress I've made this week, I believe this is completely doable.
ReplyDeleteBut. I'm also getting a fruit share on Saturday. But I can freeze the leftovers for baked oatmeal when I get back. Or I might bring some fruit.
