Pan-fried tofu with green beans (FODMAP friendly)

When I was growing up in China, tofu was the cheapest protein and it was always plentiful.  At the fresh food market they sold tofu on a large timber slab, carefully cutting out the squares for each customer.

As the cooking oil was rationed, as a special treat my grandmother would pan fry the tofu to golden brown with load of oil – what a mouth watering aroma!

Ingredients

• 4 square of plain tofu, cut into thin triangles
• a handful of green beans, trimmed and diced
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tsp corn flour, mixed with 2 tbsp water
• cooking oil

Method

• Mix the oyster sauce with the corn flour mixture and sesame oil
• In a frying pan, heat up some cooking oil, stir fry the green beans until nearly cooked; transfer to a place
• In a frying pan, heat up some cooking oil, pan fry the tofu until golden brown, add the oyster sauce mixture, cook briefly gently; add green beans, mix well; ready to serve
