Instructions

Step 1

Dissolve the corn starch in the room temp water, stirring to dissolve without lumps, then add the remaining sauce ingredients. Set sauce aside.

Step 2

Once all your vegetables and salad leaves are prepared, get ready to stir fry. In a large wok, heat the oil, then add the white parts of the spring onion, the garlic and the ginger. Fry for 30 seconds, then crumble in the firm tofu. It should vaguely resemble mince in the pan. Fry this off for 2-3 minutes to evaporate off the liquid in the tofu, then add the corn, water chestnuts, mushrooms, green beans and carrot. Stir fry this for a further 1-2 minutes, before adding your sauce, and sprinkling the sugar around the hot sides of the wok, stirring everything through for a minute to combine before turning off the heat.

Step 3

Serve cos lettuce cups with the filling, topped with chopped peanuts and the green part of the spring onion.
