Stir Fried Broccoli With Coconut Food

SIMPLE BROCCOLI STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Trim the florets off the broccoli, and cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch pieces. Peel the broccoli stalks with a vegetable peeler to remove the tough outer skin, and slice 1/4 inch thick on the diagonal. Set aside.
• Whisk together 1/2 cup water, soy sauce, cornstarch and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a large wok over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil, and swirl to coat the wok. Once the oil begins to smoke, add the broccoli florets and stems. Cook, stirring constantly, until browned around the edges, about 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of water to steam the broccoli, and cook, stirring constantly, until tender, about 2 minutes more. Push the broccoli to the edges of the pan, forming an empty well in the center. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, then the scallions, garlic, ginger and pepper flakes, and stir until aromatic, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the soy mixture, and stir until the sauce has thickened and the broccoli is coated, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, add the sesame oil and stir to coat. Serve with rice.

STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI WITH COCONUT

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large wok or saucepan set over a medium heat. Toss in the mustard seeds followed by the curry leaves (if you are using dried curry leaves add them later on with the broccoli) and chilli flakes. Swirl everything around until the leaves stop spluttering, then add the onions and ginger and fry for 3-4 mins over a high heat.
• Stir in the broccoli (and dried curry leaves if using) and continue frying over a high heat until just tender, stirring all the time. Scatter over the coconut (if you are using desiccated coconut, soak it in hot water for 5 mins before tipping into a sieve, draining away any liquid, and adding to the pan at the end of cooking), stir to mix and sharpen with the lime juice.

CURRIED TOFU STIR-FRY WITH COCONUT SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: whisk together the first five ingredients.
• For the stir-fry: Combine the garlic, scallions, ginger, water, curry and 1 Tablespoon of the oil and set aside.
• Toss the tofu with salt and pepper to taste. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or non-stick skillet over high heat. Add the tofu and cook, turning the cubes to lightly brown on several sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the tofu to a bowl.
• Add the last tablespoon of oil to the skillet and heat until it's shimmering. Add the carrots, onion and pepper and cook until they begin to soften - about 2-3 minutes.
• Add the peas and immediately clear a space in the center of the wok or skillet by pushing the vegetables to the side. Pour the garlic mixture into the middle and cook until fragrant - about 30 seconds. Stir to combine the garlic mixture and the vegetables.
• Return the tofu to the skillet. Whisk the coconut sauce to recombine it and add it to the skillet. Toss the ingredients together until well coated with the sauce. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve.
