Hello all how are you guys doing? How is the holiday season treating you? I know it’s been about 2 weeks that I have posted anything. This is because we have moved to a new city. Packing up stuff , looking for a new apartment , touring schools for my son and following up countless stuff on the checklist is keeping me busy. Amidst all this today I thought of making a quick comfort dish. We love stir fry’s a lot. It’s a pretty simple meal to put up with loads of veggies and protein. And this stir fry is Vegan and Gluten -free too. It is one of our family favorite Asian dish – Stir fry in Hoisin sauce.
Assorted veggies and tofu tossed in homemade hoisin sauce . Crunch from the veggies , protein filled tofu , little bit of kick from the hot sauce, quiet tangy , slightly sweet and plentiful flavors sums up this stir fry.
Serve it over noodles, rice , quinoa or even barley – choice is yours. It’s quiet difficult to find vegan hoisin sauce . Some versions have fish sauce in them others may be high on msg. If you are lucky to find one sans fish sauce and low msg then please stock it up. It’s really good to have this sauce handy for whipping quick meals.
And if you are interested to make it at home then I have two recipe options for you . I use either of them depending on the ingredients at my disposal – One uses black bean paste – I will link that at the end of the post and Other one uses peanut butter instead – this is the one I have used for this recipe and it is mentioned below. It’s my go to recipe most of the time . Thanks to a friend of mine who suggested this easy substitute .
The above recipe is lightly adapted from here. Hope you like this recipe and do give it a try. I even vouch for this hoisin sauce made from fermented bean paste below if you can get your hands on some bean paste from Asian store. I have made it many times and it’s very yum too.
