Tofu supplies the protein, and tastes similar to chicken breasts, in this
quick-to-prepare colorful vegetarian main dish.

Drain tofu, cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Place between layers of paper towel
and weight down with a dinner plate. Let stand 10 minutes to compress and
remove excess water.

Heat oil, 2 tbsp broth and ginger in a frypan. Add celery, onion and red
pepper. Stir cook over medium heat 3 minutes. Add bean sprouts, continue
stir-cooking 1 min.

Stir in remaining broth, soy sauce and tofu. Cook and stir gently over
medium heat until vegetables are tender-crisp, and liquid is evaporated.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.

"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’."

~ John Thorne, American food writer
