90 deliciously healthy dinners broccoli with asian tofu Prep time: 20 minutes Cook time: 20 minutes the wonder of tofu is that it takes on the flavor of your favorite marinade 1 pkg (16 oz) firm tofu, drained 2 Tbsp lite soy sauce 1 tsp sesame oil (optional) ½ Tbsp brown sugar 1 Tbsp fresh ginger root, finely chopped or shredded (or 1 tsp ground) 1 lb fresh broccoli, rinsed and cut into individual spears 1 Tbsp peanut oil or vegetable oil ¼ tsp crushed red pepper 4 Tbsp garlic, peeled and thinly sliced (about 8 cloves) 1 Tbsp sesame seeds (optional) Cooking spray 1 Slice tofu into eight pieces. Place on a plate or flat surface covered with three paper towels. Top with four more paper towels. Top with another flat plate or cutting board. Press down evenly and gently to squeeze out moisture. Throw away paper towels. Replace with fresh paper towels and press again. (The more liquid you remove, the more sauce the tofu will absorb.) 2 Place tofu in a bowl just big enough to hold all eight pieces lying on their widest side without overlapping. 3 In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, and ginger into a marinade, and stir thoroughly. Pour over tofu. Carefully turn the tofu several times to coat well. Set aside. continued on page 91
