Ingredients

 

1/2 cup sweet-and-sour sauce

1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

1 tablespoon cooking oil

6 green onions, bias-sliced into 1-inch pieces (1

cup)

1/2 of a red or green sweet pepper, cut into strips

(1/2 cup)

2 cups fresh pea pods, strings removed, or one

6-ounce package frozen pea pods, thawed

1 pound firm tofu (bean curd), well-drained and cut

into 3/4-inch cubes

1 11-ounce can mandarin orange sections, drained, or

3 medium oranges, peeled and sectioned

2 cups hot cooked rice

2 tablespoons unsalted dry roasted peanuts

 

Directions:

 

1. For sauce, in a small bowl stir together

sweet-and-sour sauce and ground red pepper. Set aside.

 

2. Pour cooking oil into a wok or large skillet. (Add

more oil as necessary during cooking.) Preheat over

medium-high heat. Stir-fry green onions and sweet

pepper in hot oil for 1 minute. Add fresh pea pods (if

using); stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes more or until

vegetables are crisp-tender. Push vegetables from the

center of the wok.

until sauce is bubbly. Add tofu, orange sections, and

thawed frozen pea pods (if using). Gently stir all

ingredients together to coat with sauce. Cover and

cook for 1 to 2 minutes more or until heated through.

Serve immediately with hot cooked rice. Sprinkle with

peanuts. Makes 4 servings.

Make-ahead tip: Prepare vegetables; cover and chill up

to 4 hours.
