Ingredients:
  • 4 tablespoons peanut oil or neutral oil (such as canola or avocado), divided
  • 1 pound mixed mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 bunch scallions, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 large garlic clove, grated
  • 1 (8-ounce) container baked or smoked tofu, diced
  • 3 tablespoons oyster sauce or vegetarian oyster sauce
Directions:
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large flat-bottom wok or cast-iron skillet over high heat.
  2. Add the mushrooms and bell pepper, and stir-fry until softened—about 4 minutes.
  3. Add the scallions, ginger, and garlic, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. Transfer everything to a bowl.
  4. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and the diced tofu to the pan. Cook for 3–4 minutes, turning once, until golden brown.
  5. Return the vegetables to the pan, add the oyster sauce, and stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for 1 more minute, just until heated through.

Serve hot over rice or noodles—or enjoy it straight from the pan!
