Ingredients
For the Sauce
  • 3 tbsp. soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp. water
  • 2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 1 ½ tsp. maple syrup
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp. freshly grated ginger
  • 2 tsp. garam masala
  • ½ tsp. turmeric
  • few dashes black pepper
For the Stir-Fry
  • 1 lb. extra firm tofu, drained, pressed and cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp. high smoke point cooking oil
  • 2 cups julienne cut carrots, about 4 medium carrots
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips
  • ½ cup diced mango, about 1 champagne mango, or ½ of a larger mango
  • ¼ cup roasted peanuts
  • ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 scallions, chopped
For Serving

Instructions
Make the Sauce
  1. Whisk all ingredients together in a small bowl. Set aside.
Make the Stir-Fry
  1. Coat the bottom of a large skillet with oil and place over medium heat. When oil is hot, add tofu. Cook for about 10 minutes, flipping once or twice, until pieces are browned on multiple sides. Remove from skillet and transfer to a plate.
  2. Add a dash more oil to the skillet if it seems dry, then raise the heat to high. Add carrots and pepper. Stir-fry, flipping constantly, until veggies are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Return tofu to skillet and add sauce. Flip a few times and cook just until sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
  3. Remove from heat and add mango, peanuts, scallions and cilantro to the mixture. Flip a few times to incorporate.
Serve
  1. Divide stir-fry among lettuce leaves. Top with hot sauce, if desired, and serve.
