Instructions

1Press the tofu for 15 minutes to remove excess water, then cut into cubes.
2Whisk the soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of water to make the teriyaki sauce.
3Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick pan or wok over high heat. Fry the tofu, turning occasionally, until golden and crisp on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
4Add the remaining oil to the pan along with the garlic and ginger for 30 seconds.
5Add the broccoli, bell pepper, and snap peas and stir-fry over high heat for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
6Return the tofu to the pan, pour over the teriyaki sauce, and toss for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats everything.
7Serve immediately over rice or noodles, sprinkled with sesame seeds.
