Yellow! Today is sunny and I woke up at 11am after sleeping very late last night for my last video edit.
It has been a tough week so I'm thinking about eating sauté. I grew up watching my mom making sautéd vegies and I'm so used to it. It's like it's always been a part of me, very comforting.
So today I decided to make one after a very busy week.
This recipe is very simple. I made it my own version so I picked my spices (spanish paprika, black pepper, chili flakes) and these three are just an A-mazing combination, taste so good together.
I used healthy vegan tamari soy sauce which is gluten free and of course the star of the day- sesame oil. These 5 ingredients are my major weapons for this recipe. :-)
For the tofu, I made it sure to dry it well by patting with paper towel, pressing down excess water and putting it in the freezer for 2 minutes before slicing it. This will give you a crispier tofu and not too saggy.
Make sure your potatoes are well cooked in the oil. For me it took like around 7 minutes to fully make it that softer to eat. It taste really great like fries and the oil makes it crispier. :-)
I only used white onion coz I love the smell of it specially when it's browned in oil. The combination of olive oil and white onion really smells great and such amazing aroma.
So guys, here it is. I hope you like this recipe.

- Heat the skillet in medium heat and add olive oil.
