Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 8 ounces extra-firm tofu pressed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup yellow onion sliced
  • 2 teaspoons garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 4 cups baby spinach leaves chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds optional for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, add the cubed tofu in a single layer. Cook for 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides.
  • Add the sliced onion to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Then add the minced garlic and ginger and cook for an additional 30 seconds, until fragrant.
  • Pour in the soy sauce, then add the chopped spinach and black pepper. Stir frequently, cooking for about 1 minute or until the spinach is wilted and tender.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using, and serve warm.
