2 tsp soy sauce (Use tamari for a gluten free recipe)
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
200g mushrooms
6 baby bok choi, or a handful of any leafy green
small bunch spring onions
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Press the excess water out of your tofu by placing it under something heavy (I use my cast iron pan's lid) for 5-10 minutes. Then, cut into 2cm cubes.
Toss the cubes in the soy sauce and sesame oil, and bake in a single layer in the oven for 15 minutes. They will have a really lovely blancmange-y wobble when they're done.
In a wok, fry the szechuan peppercorns in the oil for a minute, then add the garlic, ginger and chilli and cook for another couple of minutes, stirring really vigorously to stop it catching.
Add the mushrooms, miso, soy sauce and balsamic vinegar (If you are using bok choi, put the bodies in at this point, saving the leaves for later) and cook for 6-7 minutes, until the mushrooms have given out their liquid to make a dark, spicy sauce with the other ingredients.
Add your bok choi leaves, or leafy veg if using, along with your baked tofu. Cook for a further 2 minutes, until the leaves are wilted.
Serve with thinly sliced spring onions on top, and brown rice.
