Thai Style Vegetable Stir Fry with Hoisin Sauce
Simple yet flavorful vegetable stir-fry recipe combining Thai flavors with tofu, vegetables and hoisin sauce. This vegetable stir-fry recipe is vegetarian and you can omit the honey to make it vegan.

Ingredients:

  • For the sauce:
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • approx. 2 tbsp fresh ginger
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • approx 1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tsp honey
  • For the stir-fry:
  • 1 block firm or extra firm tofu
  • 1 red or yellow bell pepper
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1/3 chop chopped mushrooms (shiitake is best, but another kind may be used)
  • olive oil for stir-frying

Preparation:

In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, hoisin sauce, ginger, red pepper, cilantro and honey until combined and set asice.

In a large skillet, heat a thin layer of olive oil and add tofu, stiring frequently until tofu is golden brown, about 4-6 minutes. Add peppers, mushrooms and sauce, stirring to combine. Stir-fry another 3-5 minutes and serve your Thai vegetable stir-fry hot over rice or noodles if desired.

Great stir fry sauce, with less lime, Guest RickyD

This is a nice combination of flavors that can go with any leftover veggies for a great stir-fry main dish. I took the advise of the previous reviewers and cut the lime amount in half - so went with 2 T. It was delicious with leftovers I had in the frig: tofu, cauliflower, onion, pepper and kailan (Chinese veggie). (I also used 2 chili padi instead of the red pepper flakes, but I'm in Singapore where chili padi is a common ingredient.)
