I'm trying to cook asian food and it's really been hit or miss. This was a hit I concocted last night that was good and healthy:

One package cubed organic tofu
splash of sesame oil with chili (hot stuff!!)
Two passes of ginger over my cheese grater
A couple of splashes of low sodium soy sauce
I sauteed all that in a non-stick skillet until the tofu absorbed most of it. Then I added a tablespoon of peanut butter and a little more oil. Once that coated the tofu I added a couple of handfuls of cabbage and let it cook for about 5-10 min, just enough to keep some crunch.

It turned out really good with the soft tofu having a sweet peanut buttery flavor and a little kick at the end with the sesame chili sauce. The cabbage gave it a crunch.

I'll tell you, sesame chili oil and peanut butter are VERY good together. I've done this with chicken and pork in the past and it's fabulous.

Sorry there aren't exact measurements. I was flying by the seat of my pants in the kitchen!
