Crispy Tofu and Cabbage Stir-Fry
This tumble of crisp tofu, charred cabbage and citrusy coriander includes a couple tricks you’ll want to employ in other dishes. The flavor of the stir-fry is propelled by using the coriander plant multiple ways: Combining coriander seeds with fresh stems and leaves — also known as cilantro — creates a range of complex but related flavors. Then there’s what might be the quickest — and your new favorite — way to cook cabbage: When large pieces of cabbage are cooked undisturbed in a hot pan, they don’t have a chance to turn to mush. Instead, the cabbage becomes sweet and crisp-tender, with a smoky edge. Eat the stir-fry with grains or noodles, like rice noodles or soba.
Ingredients
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • Kosher salt
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 1 (14-ounce) package extra-firm tofu, patted dry and torn into 1-inch pieces (see Tip)

  • 1 tablespoon coriander seeds, crushed
  • ½ cup coarsely chopped cilantro leaves and stems
