Preparation
Step 1
First up make sure you have all your vegetable prep done before you start to cook, as the cooking process only takes a matter of minutes. Combine soy sauce, mirin, sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl, mix well and set aside (near your stove-top) for later. Heat oil in a large frying pan and cook tofu over medium heat, turning every couple of minutes until evenly browned on each side (this is a bit of a pain to do, but so worth it when all that lovely sauce sticks to the golden bits). Once all golden and lovely, transfer tofu to a plate. Place pan back on the heat, add a dash more oil if needed and stir-fry all the veges for 1-2 minutes until just starting to wilt, add tofu back into pan, then pour over sauce. Stir-fry for a further minute until veges are just tender and sauce has reduced a little. Serve hot over cooked rice, scattered with chopped spring onion tips and hot sauce, if desired.
