One of my favorite dishes to make when I’m in the mood for take out but want something a bit healthier? These delicious saucy soy curls with broccoli . So easy to make and requires less than 10 ingredients! If you don’t have soy curls, you could also make this with pressed or (even better) previously frozen tofu or any other meat substitute you like
Ingredients :
- 2 cups of soy curls
- Warm water
- 1 bag of frozen broccoli florets or 1 large head of broccoli
- 1-2 scallions
- 1 tbsp of avocado or other cooking oil
Sauce:
- 1 cup of water
- 1 heaping tbsp of corn starch plus 2 tbsp of water to dissolve
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos or light soy sauce
- 1/4 cup sriracha
- 2 tbsp of coconut or brown sugar or maple syrup
- Splash of rice vinegar (optional)
Method:
1- Add soy curls to a bowl, cover with warm water and let them rehydrate for 10 minutes.
2- Drain excess water.
In a large wok or skillet, heat up oil and pan fry soy curls until lightly browned.
3- Chop scallions and if using fresh, cut broccoli into florets.
4- Add veggies to the pan and sauté until broccoli is tender but still firm and not overcooked.
5- If you’re using fresh broccoli, you can add a few tbsp of water as it doesn’t release as much water as frozen broccoli does.
7- In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch with 2 tablespoon of water, then stir in coconut aminos or soy sauce, sriracha, sugar or syrup, rice vinegar and water.
8- Pour sauce over soy curls and broccoli, bring everything to a boil and cook for a couple minutes until sauce starts to thicken and everything is nicely glazed.
9- Serve with brown rice and enjoy!
Serve with brown rice or grain of choice
Tips:
Optional: Add some chickenless seasoning salt to the soy curls while panfrying them
