Directions

  3. Tofu Steak:
  4. Place the tofu steak in (cooled) marinade and set aside. Let marinate for at least one hour.
  5. Stir Fry Sauce:
  6. Prepare the stir fry sauce by combining all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Whisk together and set aside.
  7. Edamame Puree:
  8. Place cooked edamame beans in a blender with vegetable stock and puree until smooth. Pass through a fine meshed sieve and finish with salt and pepper.
  9. Tofu Steak Preparation:
  10. Remove the tofu steak from marinade and bread in Japanese panko breadcrumbs. Place the breaded tofu in a fryer set at 350 and fry for approximately two minutes, or until golden-brown. Set aside.
  11. Stir Fry:
  12. Over high heat in a medium saute pan add the soy oil. Next add the mushrooms and shishito peppers to the pan and saute until golden. Add 3 oz of stir fry sauce to pan and cook briefly until sauce reduces slightly and coats the mushrooms and peppers. Be careful not to over-reduce the sauce and burn it. Remove from heat.
