Vegan Tofu and vegetable stir-fry with teriyaki sauce

This tofu and vegetable stir-fry with teriyaki sauce is a quick and healthy interpretation of a Japanese classic.

The 'itame' technique—stir-frying over high heat—maintains the crunchy texture of the vegetables and enhances the flavor of the tofu, which acts as a sponge for the tasty teriyaki sauce.

Although teriyaki sauce was originally used with meats, its adoption in vegetarian and vegan recipes has grown strongly due to its savory-sweet flavor and versatility.

This dish reflects the contemporary fusion of traditional and healthy, ideal for a light meal with chopsticks.
