Instructions: Take two cakes of hard tofu, and cut them in quarters, then divide the squares in half diagonally, then divide each piece in half "height-wise" to yield 32 bite-sized pieces.

Place a little peanut oil in a hot pan and stir-fry the tofu pieces until they turn golden brown. Next saute the garlic, ginger and chilis (if used) in a little oil, and then add the soy sauces and then all the other ingredients except the bean sprouts. Stir-fry for about a minute, then add the cornstarch and continue to stir-fry for a further minute.

Add the bean sprouts, stir very briefly to warm them, but not cook them, and then serve with Thai jasmine rice.

Comments: This is a basic vegetarian stir-fry.
