2 servings · 5 min prep · 10 min cook

Ingredients

Ingredients

• 1 packet (16 oz) extra firm tofu
• 2 tbsp avocado oil
• ½ large red bell pepper, sliced
• ¾ cup green beans, cut to ½ inch long pieces
• ½ medium onion, chopped
• 1 cup Thai holy basil
• 2 large eggs, optional
• salt and pepper to taste
• 3 tbsp dark soy sauce
• 2½ tsp brown sugar
• 4 cloves garlic, chopped
• ¼ tsp ginger, grated
• ½ tsp Thai chili pepper flakes, optional for spice

Steps

1. Take your 1 packet (16 oz) extra firm tofu and squeeze out as much water as you can with your hands and some paper towels. Next crumble it up with a fork or your hands to get ground tofu.
2. Add the ground tofu to a hot pan with 2 tbsp oil and saute until it becomes dry, about 5 minutes. Optional: meanwhile in a separate pan, cook 2 large eggs sunny side up over high heat until the edges become crispy.

3. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp dark soy sauce, 2 ½ tsp brown sugar, 4 cloves garlic, and ¼ tsp ginger to make the sauce. Add the sauce, ½ large bell pepper, ¾ cup green beans, and ½ medium onion to the pan and saute everything together for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked but still crispy.

4. Season your tofu mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Tofu is pretty bland so it may need a pinch of salt.
5. Turn off the heat and stir in 1 cup Thai basil and mix it together until the basil wilts.
6. Serve over rice and top with the crispy fried egg.
