Every western Asian restaurant offers one of those food, you know?
It's not a Teriyaki sauce...
I think it's a kind of American Chinese food.
And if you are wondering what that brown sauce is made from, here is my answer.
Ingredients for the fried tofu
400 g firm tofu (sliced)
A pinch of salt and pepper
1 tbsp neutral oil
Vegetables (A) 3 cups in total
2 mini snack stick carrots
1 large bok choy (stems)
1 small red bell pepper
2 stalks of green onions (light green part)
Zucchini slices (10 cm)
＋2 tbsp white wine or rose
Vegetable(B) 1 cup in total
2 stalks of green onions (green)
1 handful bean sprouts
Leafy part of bok choy
👉You could add some authentic Asian ingredients such as
Shiitake ,cloud ear mushroom or jarred bamboo shoot.
But you could just grab about 4 cups of vegetables of your choice.

Lay out tofu slices so that they do not overlap.
Fry them each side for at least 3 minutes until golden.
Sprinkle some salt and pepper.
Transfer the fried tofu to a dried plate so that they should stay crispy.
Note:
Don't wash the pan yet. We are going to use this heated pan in the
next step for veggies.

Cook them over high heat for a few minutes.

Bring it to a boil.

It's done!
Serve it with fragrant Jasmin rice :)
