Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Cut the tofu into small cubes and marinate it in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes for at least 10 minutes.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Remove the tofu from the marinade, letting any excess liquid drip off. Add the tofu to the skillet and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
3
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the mixed vegetables and cook until they are tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes.
4
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir-fry for another minute.
5
Add the cooked tofu back into the skillet and stir-fry for another minute to combine.
6
Season with salt to taste and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
