Healthy Recipes Healthy Cooking Methods & Styles Healthy Stir Fry Recipes Three-Pea, Cashew & Tofu Stir-Fry 4.0 (4) 2 Reviews Pressing tofu before making this tofu stir-fry recipe gives it a chewy, satisfying texture. Three green peas--sugar snaps, snow peas and shelling peas--balance it out with brightly flavored crunch. Hoisin--a dark brown, thick, spicy-sweet sauce made from soybeans and a complex mix of spices--gives the stir-fry rich depth of flavor with just one ingredient. Look for it, as well as chile-garlic sauce, in the Asian section of the market.
