Ingredients
Instructions
-
Cut the tofu skin into 1x 2-in(2.5x5-cm) strips. Cut the cabbage leaves to similar size.
-
Combine all the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
-
Heat oil in wok over high heat until hot, but not smoking.
-
Add the tofu skin and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the cabbage and ginger, and continue to stir-fry until the cabbage is tender, about 3 to 4 minutes.
-
Add the Sauce mixture, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish.
Note
For a touch of chilli flavor that does not overpower the whole dish, cut 1 to 2 dried chillies lengthwise, scrape away the seeds and fibers and add them to the hot sesame oil before the tofu skin. A sprinkling of Sichuan Pepper-Salt Powder (page 3) over the finished dish, plus a handful of minced spring onions, will also spice it up nicely without smothering the subtle flavors of the main ingredients.
