Honey ginger tofu and cashew nut stir fry recipe makes a dish that is bursting with great flavours and textures. Tofu is a pressed bean curd made from soya that originated in China thousands of years ago. Packaged in water and stored in the fridge, it’s usually well-dated and can also be stored in the freezer. Its chewy texture and high protein content means it can replace meat in curries, stir fries and salads. Tofu contains all the essential amino acids your body needs. It also provides good fats, some carbohydrates and a wide variety of vitamins and minerals, including calcium. When marinated or added to a sauce, it will absorb flavours quickly. Most supermarkets sell tofu, and weight for weight it typically costs less than meat.
