Instructions

Step 1

First, slice your tofu into equal sized cubes.

Step 2

Place them in the air fryer and toss them in 1 tbsp vegetable oil, salt, and pepper. Air fry for 13 minutes at 160C. Or until lightly golden and slightly crispy.

Step 3

Slice up all your vegetables and ingredients, ready to fry in the claypot.

Step 4

Drizzle the other 1 tbsp vegetable oil into the base of your claypot (or any pot that has a lid), and then add in your garlic, ginger, and shallots. Fry for 3 minutes and stir frequently.

Step 5

Next up, add in all of your vegetables and give everything a stir. Fry for 5 minutes.

Step 6

Meanwhile, make your seasoning sauce by combining your vegan oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, veggie stock, and 300ml boiling water.

Step 7

Pour your veggie seasoning stock mixture into your claypot followed by your cornstarch slurry (make this by combining 1 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp water).

Step 8

Give everything a mix and then place the lid onto the pot and leave to simmer until your tofu is ready.

Step 9

Once your tofu is ready, add it into your claypot, give everything a good mix, and then serve up on its own, or with some rice, noodles, or pasta. Enjoy!
