30-minute tofu bok choy stir-fry

First recipe of 2025! 🎉

Cubes of firm tofu tossed in cornstarch and fried until golden are often the foundation on which I build dinner.

While the tofu hangs out in the tofu press and then crisps up in the skillet, I gather up supplemental ingredients – vegetables from the crisper drawer, grains from the pantry, condiments for a savory sauce – to round out the meal.

This Chinese-inspired tofu bok choy stir-fry was born out of one of these dinner improv sessions. It’s an easy meal that’s both light and satisfying. The chewy tofu cubes are complemented by crunchy, juicy bok choy, and everything gets coated in a glossy, garlicky, stir-fry sauce. Add a grain – like brown rice, quinoa, or noodles – and dinner’s ready.
