Jack is Cooking Kale and Tofu with Tahini Sauce

Well Hello Internet!

on thursday night i made a delicious quick stir fry!  a nice relief after eating so many pastries and BBQ!  

this ones pretty easy and super delicious to make.  
heres what you need:

tofu (cut up into small cubes)
kale
garlic
olive oil
hot sesame oil
soy sauce
brown rice vinegar
sriracha sauce
tahini
sesame seeds

so first!  i heated up some 4 tablespoons of olive oil with 1 tablespoon of hot sesame oil added to it.  when it was real nice and hot i added in the tofu


The trick here is to get the tofu really nice and krispy.  this is attainable but it really takes some patience.  also i have found that while yes it will stick a little bit, if you wait long enough it unsticks!
after the tofu becomes nice and brown and krispy- add in the garlic and the kale


once the kale has cooked down just a little bit (you don't want to over cook it!  just cook it just enough)
its time to add in the sauces.  so i put in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of tahini, 1 tablespoon of brown rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of sriracha and then sprinkled a bunch of sesame seeds on top!


and there you have it!

i ate it plain, but you could cook some rice, or some quinoa, or some millet to go along with it!

mmmm mmmm delicious!

  1. Lovely. I love tofu, which is why I'm grabbing this recipe. :-P Thanks for sharing! I wanna share this to my friends too in Foodista. Just if you don't mind adding the foodista widget for kale at the end of the post, that'd be great :-) Keep on posting!
