Instructions

  1. Heat a large pan to medium high. Add the canola oil and then the tofu and let it brown on both sides, about 2 minutes on the first side and 1 min on the other. Remove them from the pan with a slotted spoon.
  2. Add the Chinese celery, garlic cloves, and water. Cover this until it is cooked, about 4 minutes. You’ll want the celery to retain some of its crunch and green color.
  3. Uncover, taste, and add salt if needed. Serve immediately.
