Stir fried Tofu is one of the easiest and quickest recipe you can make. Its tasty , healthy and nutritious. I used to make this dish with cottage cheese but of late i have started experimenting with tofu as well. I quit like the texture of tofu. While i use limited veggies so as to be able to feel the taste of Tofu or Paneer. However that should not hold you back should you feel like adding a bit of peas or potatoes.
Its a perfect snack, meal or side dish for working professionals who are always short on time. My kids make this dish a lot since it goes well with a hectic lifestyle.
