I like to use canola because it holds up well to high heat better than just about anything. I think grapeseed oil can take an ever higher temp. I like a little sesame oil, but too much can be overpowering in flavor (for me). There’s quite a bit of sesame already in the sauce I was using too. Thanks!

I’ve been collecting stiry fry recipes and just came across this one. Q: Why do I see so much canola oil in stir fry recipes? I suspect there is a food science reason. I prefer the taste of sesame oil and add a bit of olive oil as I think it helps sesame stand up to stir fry heat. Also, I like to add Mirin rice wine with the soy. Also I like to sprinkle sesame seeds on the tofu. It makes them look “feastier”. I like the way you showed the steps.

Just made this dish- thanks for a great recipe.
I’m not much of a cook, and out in Oahu this summer by myself.
The landscape is inspiring me to try lots of new things, and this is one of them.
I’ll definitely cook this up for my family when I get home!

Looks very yummy! I don’t know if I could find that sauce around here…I will have to look at the co-op or natural food store!

Ah, eggplant… yet again you taunt me by allowing another to create a fabulous dish with you. Why do you hate me?!

This looks simple and yummy. On days that I don’t have a lot of time to cook, I just throw some pasta in water, sautee a few veggies and top with feta!
