About This Recipe

This savory Stir-Fried Dried Tofu with Green Peppers is a flavorful and satisfying dish that combines chewy dried tofu with crisp green peppers in a rich, aromatic sauce. The dried tofu is cut into diamond-shaped pieces for perfect texture, while the green peppers add a fresh, slightly spicy kick. A fragrant blend of minced scallions, ginger, and garlic forms the base, infusing the dish with depth. The sauce—a mix of oyster sauce, light soy sauce, mace powder, and water starch—creates a glossy, umami-packed coating that clings to every bite. Quick stir-frying locks in the flavors, followed by a gentle simmer to thicken the sauce. The result is a hearty, protein-rich dish with a balance of tender tofu and crunchy peppers, perfect served over steamed rice. Easy to make yet bursting with bold taste, this recipe is a must-try for tofu lovers and anyone craving a delicious, plant-based meal!
