Silken tofu has a rich velvety texture that makes me think of whipped cream or maybe cream cheese. It has a nutty taste alone and absorbs basically any other flavors. It’s perfect for stir fry! We’ve made this dish before with store bought kimchi. This time around it was with my own homemade version! I know, I know! I can hardly believe that I made my own kimchi either!
This dish is very easy to make, has a lot of flavor and is rich in protein and fiber.
Silken Tofu Kimchi Stir Fry
Ingredients:
1 container of silken tofu sliced into large cubes
1 ½ cup of kimchi with juices
1 clove garlic
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp soy sauce
How to:
Soak tofu in warm salt water for 10 to 20 minutes to add more flavor. Drain and rinse.
Heat olive oil in a skillet then add garlic and tofu. Brown slightly for a few minutes per side. Slide in kimchi. Add soy sauce and fold vegetables and tofu together. Cover and allow to warm through.
Serve with rice. Try it with a crisp chardonnay, like we did!
