Servings 6 servings
Ingredients
- 16 oz firm or extra firm tofu
- ½ medium cabbage
- 3-4 small to medium potatoes We use Yukon gold
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder

- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2-3 tbsp neutral high heat oil
- 5 Minute Maple Dijon Sauce link in notes
Instructions
- Prepare 5 Minute Maple Dijon Sauce and refrigerate until needed. Recipe is linked in the notes at the bottom.
- If you are using tofu that is in water, drain and place on a lint free towel. Place another towel on top and place something heavy on top for 15 to 20 minutes to remove as much water as possible.
- While pressing the tofu, slice the cabbage into very thin strips and set aside.
- Dice potatoes into small squares about ¼ inch in size. To keep potatoes from oxidizing while you finish prepping submerge in a bowl of water until ready to use.
- After tofu has pressed, cut into ½ inch cubes and transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add tofu to wok/skillet in a single layer. Don't overcrowd the pan, split into 2 batches if needed.
- Allow to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes until golden. Flip and continue to brown on all sides. Remove the pan and set aside.
- Wipe out wok/skillet if needed and add 1 tablespoon oil heating over medium. Add diced potatoes, toss to coat in oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally until potatoes begin to brown. Cover wok/skillet with a lid and continue cooking for 15-20 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender. Turn the heat down as needed to prevent potatoes from burning on the outside before the centers are cooked through.
- After potatoes are cooked through add cabbage, a pinch of salt, pepper and minced garlic.
- Sauté until cabbage is wilted and softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add tofu to cabbage and potatoes and toss to incorporate. Drizzle desired amount of maple dijon sauce and combine. Heat though for 1-2 minutes.
