Instructions
Step 1
In a small bowl, stir together the sauce ingredients.
Step 2
Make the tofu crumbles: Drain the tofu container, then pat the tofu dry with a clean dish towel. Place the tofu in a large bowl and use your fingers to break it into roughly bite-sized crumbles.
Step 3
Heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large non-stick skillet. Add the tofu and cook on medium high for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking up large pieces into smaller crumbles with a spatula and stirring occasionally, until browned and lightly crispy and the liquid evaporates. (The exact timing depends on the tofu brand.)
Step 4
Add another drizzle of oil to the pan. Add the cashews, garlic, ginger and half of the green onions. Sauté for 1 minute. Add the sauce and sauté for 1 minute more. Remove from the heat.
Step 5
To serve, place the tofu crumbles in the butter lettuce leaves. Top with the remaining green onions, shredded carrots, sliced radishes, and torn cilantro leaves.
