STIR-FRIED TOFU WITH CARROTS AND RED PEPPERS
Make sure to cut the carrots and red peppers into the same size julienne (julienne are thin strips) so that they cook at the same rate. Both of these vegetables keep well in the refrigerator, so this should be a dish you can pull together easily.

Steps:
- Cut the tofu into 1/4-inch matchsticks and place them on paper towels. Place another paper towel on top and prepare the remaining ingredients.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup combine the soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, and the sesame oil. Combine the salt, pepper and sugar in another small bowl. Have all the ingredients within arm's reach of your pan.
- Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or 12-inch steel skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the tofu. Reduce the heat to medium and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes, until it begins to brown. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds.
- Swirl in the remaining oil and add the carrots, red pepper, mushrooms, and spring onion or red onion. Turn the heat to high and stir-fry for 1 minute, or until the vegetables begin to soften. Add the salt, pepper and sugar, toss together and add the soy sauce mixture. Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, stir in the cilantro and serve.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the carrots, onion and ginger and cook until the vegetables are just soft, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the star anise, carrot juice and 3 cups water, then cover and boil until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut the tofu into 1-inch cubes. Mix the cornstarch and curry powder on a shallow plate and season with salt. Pat the tofu dry and roll it in the cornstarch mixture. Heat the remaining 6 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the tofu and fry, turning, until golden and crisp on all sides, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
- Discard the star anise. Transfer the soup to a blender and puree in batches, or puree directly in the pot with an immersion blender. Thin with water, if needed, and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and top with the fried tofu. Garnish with cilantro, if desired.

CARROT-TOFU DISH
This is a recipe from a book I am reading on Japanese Cuisine. I'm interested in the nutritional contents so I decided to post it. The recipe calls for granulated sugar but I have replaced that with sucanat - a natural sweetener. The recipe also calls for usu-age tofu which is deep fat fried tofu however, I am substituting baked tofu to avoid the extra oil. If you do use the usu-age tofu, be sure to blanch each slice twice and squeeze out the extra moisture when finished. Usu-age tofu is available in most Asian markets and is often called Abura-age tofu.

Steps:
- If using baked tofu skip to slicing instructions. If using usu-age tofu - bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add tofu and gently simmer over medium heat, turning occasionally, for 1 minute; drain to remove excess oil. Cut tofu diagonally in half and slice each half into thin strips.
- Combine the vinegar, sucanat, sake, soy sauce, and salt in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add carrots and tofu strips and sauté until the carrots are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the soy mixture. Cook carrots and tofu for 2 more minutes, or until tender. Turn off heat, stir in the sesame seeds, and drizzle with toasted sesame oil.
- Transfer to small serving dish.

- Drain tofu and blot dry with paper towels. Cut tofu crosswise into 8 slices. Lay slices down flat and cut each in half lengthwise, then across twice to make to 6 cubes. Place a double layer of paper towels on a cutting board and lay the tofu slices in a single layer on top of it. Top with another double layer of paper towels and lay another cutting board or baking sheet on top. Grab a few cans or other heavy items from your pantry and place them on top to weigh down the tofu. Let sit for 30-60 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together oil, mustard, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss onions and carrots in vinaigrette, and remove them to a large, rimmed baking sheet, leaving excess vinaigrette in the bowl. Spread veggies into a single layer, then gently toss the tofu with the remaining vinaigrette. Scatter tofu on top of the veggies.
- Roast veggies and tofu in the preheated oven until the carrots are cooked through and the tofu starts getting golden around the edges, about 25-30 minutes.
