Directions
Sherry Tofu and Snow Peas, My vegetarian friend Matthew and I get together to cook now and then (he being a newbie chef), and this was the first dish we made as his introduction to veggie cooking Very tasty! Based on a recipe from Curtis Aikens , We like all the components of the recipe but not the cooking technique for tofu It was a really quick recipe to pull together, Thanks for sharing the recipe , Good recipe, but perhaps a bit bland My BF made this for dinner the other day, served over orzo He said he fried the tofu for about 10 minutes, but it did not brown, or subsequent cooking pretty much erased whatever color or texture came from fying He used less oil and peanuts instead of cashews, though I think cashews definitely would have been better Also, snow peas were overdone (again, sorry, not recipe’s fault I think) so don’t overcook them Sesame oil and more garlic might help Mild taste, better for a family with kids perhaps Sorry I couldn’t rate this better, then again note that I didn’t make it! I had second thoughts about rating this at all, but I still think it needed more flavor Maybe I will try making this myself again and will rerate Thanks!
