I love quick 1 Pot stir fry meals with creamy thai style peanut sauce. Add some veggies or tofu or some lentils and its a delicious meal! Many of you avoid nuts or soy or both. So I went about making an allergy friendly version. The tofu here is chickpea flour tofu, no soy!. The Peanut sauce uses sunbutter, no nuts and no soy. This whole meal takes just minutes if you have already prepped chickpea tofu. Add veggies of choice and serve over grains or noodles!
Lets make this Stir fry with chickpea flour tofu and Peanut free Peanut Sauce! If you try it, let me know how it worked out.

You want to crisp up the chickpea tofu before adding to the sauce. That helps it hold its shape and also have better texture. Adding it directly to a hot sauce can make it a bit sticky.
