Method

1

Gather and prepare your ingredients.

2

Place all ingredients for the sauce into a small blender and blend until smooth.

3

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan or wok. Add the cubes of tofu and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes before turning, allowing them to turn golden as evenly as possible.

4

Add the baby corn, red pepper, spring onion and edamame. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the edamame has defrosted and the vegetables are tender. Reserve some spring onions for garnish, if desired.

5

Add the sauce and peanuts and turn off the heat. Stir to coat, allowing the sauce to heat through gently in the residual heat of the pan.

6

Serve sprinkled with the reserved spring onions.
