My wonderful husband Brent is the king of stir fry in our house. He creates delightful flavours and each version is a work of art. We are so lucky Brent has been cooking for us all for years. When I first met him, he wasn’t much of a cook. Over the last thirty years he has evolved into quite an intuitive chef, rarely looking at a recipe. Ingredients fly in and out of the cupboards, flour on the floor….whew what a mess he makes! And it is worth every dirty counter, his food rocks.

Vegan Stir-fry Sautéed Peanut Coconut Tofu is one of his latest and I got the recipe from him as he created it. I hope you’ll like it….I think you will!

How to prepare your Vegan Stir-fry Veggies Sautéed Peanut Tofu

  • For this recipe you need to prep your marinade and veggies.
  • Cook the veggies in one pan and sautéed the tofu in another. At the end everything comes together.
  • We like to serve ours over a bed of rice, we love wild rice. Choose your favourite.

Prepare marinade and soak tofu

  1. Mix all the ingredients together for the marinade. Add the chopped tofu and soak for 30 minutes. I put mine in a container with a seal-able lid and then I can gently spread the marinade evenly over the tofu periodically as it soaks.

Prepare the veggies:

  1. Slice your mushrooms and set aside
