Description

I have a special place in my heart for asparagus and kale, but had never thought of pairing them together in one of my favorite dishes. This stir-fry is easy to prepare and glazed in a beautiful sweet, ginger and garlic teriyaki sauce.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cups Pure Maple Syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons Rice Vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons Shoyu (or Soy Sauce)
  • 2 Tablespoons Blackstrap Molasses
  • 1 Tablespoon Toasted Sesame Oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic, Pressed
  • ¾ teaspoons Ground Ginger
  • 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • ¼ cups Water
  • ¾ pounds, ⅜ ounces, weight Extra Firm Tofu, Pressed And Cut Into 2 Centimeter-sized Cubes
  • 2 Tablespoons Sunflower Oil, For Frying
  • 1 bunch Asparagus (1 Bunch Should Be About 25 Spears), Tough End Removed Then Chopped Into 1-inch Pieces
  • 4 leaves Kale, Ribs Removed Then Chopped
  • 4 cups Cooked Brown Rice Or Quinoa, Quantity Depends On Your Preference Of Serving Size

Preparation

1. Prepare the teriyaki sauce by whisking together the maple syrup, rice vinegar, shoyu, molasses, sesame oil, pressed garlic, and ginger in a 4-cup liquid measuring cup. Set aside.
2. In a separate small dish, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water. Add the starch/water mixture to the rest of the sauce ingredients and whisk until combined. Set aside.
3. Place the pressed, cubed tofu into a medium mixing bowl and pour the sauce over the top. Allow the tofu to marinate for 15–20 minutes.
4. Once the tofu has finished marinating, heat a medium non-stick skillet on medium-high heat. Dry fry the marinated tofu cubes (reserving the teriyaki sauce), flipping often for 5–8 minutes total or until browned on all sides. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. Heat the sunflower oil in a large skillet or wok on medium-high heat. Add the chopped asparagus and kale and stir-fry for 8–10 minutes, until the asparagus is fork-tender and the kale pieces have wilted.
6. Add the tofu into the skillet with the veggies and pour the reserved teriyaki sauce over top. Cook a few minutes more, stirring often, until the sauce has thickened and evenly glazes the entire stir-fry. Serve on a bed of cooked brown rice or quinoa.
