Directions
Pat the tofu dry and cut it into cubes. Heat 2 tbsp of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the tofu until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, sauté the minced garlic and chopped onion until fragrant and the onions become translucent.
Add the broccoli florets and carrot slices to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), and water or vegetable broth. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend. Stir in the cornstarch slurry (cornstarch dissolved in water) and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly. Add the fried tofu back into the pan. Stir gently to coat the tofu with the sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring everything is heated through.
Drizzle with sesame oil (if using) and sprinkle with ground black pepper to taste. Serve hot with steamed rice.
