Comment préparer Japanese Mom S Tofu Stir Fry

Press the tofu: Wrap the tofu block in several layers of paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Place a heavy object (like a few books or a cast iron skillet) on top for at least 15 minutes to remove excess water.
Crumble the tofu: Once pressed, crumble the tofu into a large bowl using your hands or a potato masher.
Drain the tofu: Place the crumbled tofu in a fine-mesh strainer and let it drain for 5 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Prep vegetables: While the tofu is draining, peel and shred the carrot. Thinly slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, and mirin.
Stir-fry vegetables: Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the white parts of the green onions and the shredded carrots. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Add tofu and sauce: Add the drained tofu to the skillet and stir to combine. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the tofu and vegetables.
Cook until tender: Continue to stir-fry for another 3-5 minutes, or until the carrots are tender-crisp and the tofu is heated through. Stir in the green parts of the green onions during the last minute of cooking.
Serve: Serve the tofu stir-fry hot over a bed of cooked rice.
