Instructions

Step 1

Start by pressing the tofu between two towels to remove the excess moisture.

Step 2

Cut into cubes and transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, cornstarch or arrowroot powder and shake.

Step 3

Gently coat with your avocado oil, shake again and transfer to your air fryer. I like to cook mine at 375 degrees for 8 min, shaking the tray at 4 min.

Step 4

Cook for another 8 min at 400, shaking the tray every 4 min. *if not as crispy as you’d like, add increments of 2 min.

Step 5

While tofu is cooking, assemble your sauce mixture in a glass jar and set aside. ⁣

Step 6

Once tofu is cooked, set aside. Next, add all the veggies to a large pan with avocado oil and cook on medium heat until the veggies start to wilt and become fragrant (about 6 min)

Step 7

Next pour in your stir fry sauce and let simmer for about 5 min, stirring occasionally.

Step 8

Next add in your tofu, stir and let sauce thicken for a few min.

Step 9

Plate on top of your microwaved rice and enjoy!
