my favorite meal is lemon tofu with white rice and a side of peas mixed with butter,salt %26amp; pepper


here is the lemon tofu recipe:


3 tablespoons olive oil, divided


1 block extra firm tofu, frozen,thawed and pressed


2 garlic cloves, minced


2 green onions, chopped


1/2 cup and 4 tablespoons water


4 tbsp lemon juice


3 tablespoons vinegar


4 tablespoons soy sauce


1/2 cup packed brown sugar


1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or adjusted to your taste


4 teaspoons cornstarch


2 tablespoon water


hot cooked rice


Instructions:


Cut tofu into 4 slices to make fillets or cut into bite size pieces.


Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, saute garlic and green onions in remaining 1 tablespoon oil until garlic is golden.


Add water, lemon juice, vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, and pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium.


In a small cup or dish, mix together cornstarch and water until thoroughly blended. Pour cornstarch mixture into sauce, stirring constantly. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until sauce thickens to your liking. Remove from heat and combine with tofu until completely coated. Serve over rice.
I make this about 1-2x a month at my house, and even the kids love it.
