Share your recipes for the nine days

I thought I would share a few vegetarian recipes, and hopefully others can too, for the nine days. These are pretty cheap (under $5 each) and easy recipes. The measurement amounts are approximate, as I usually just eye ball them.

Tofu Stir Fry

  • 1 pound of firm/extra firm tofu
  • 2 x 1 pound bags of frozen stir fry veggies
  • 3 TABLEspoons of soy sauce
  • 1 TABLEspoon of white sugar
  • 2 x teaspoons of red pepper flakes (optional; I like spicy food)
  • 2 x TABLEspoons of cooking oil
  1. Add cooking oil to pan. When warmed add veggies.
  2. While veggies are cooking, cut the tofu into about 1cm cubes.
  3. About 5 minutes after adding veggies, add soy sauce, sugar, and red pepper flakes. Stir and cook for about three minutes.
  4. Add tofu and cook for another five minutes.
  5. Serve over white rice.

Navy bean with leeks and tomato sauce

  • 1 pound dried white navy beans soaked overnight
  • 5 leeks
  • 3 cloves of minced garlic
  • 2 cups of tomato sauce
  • Salt/pepper to taste
  • Juice from one lemon
  • Cooking oil
  1. Heat cooking oil and saute leeks for about 10 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and cook for another 2 minutes.
  3. Add the beans (rinsed and drained), tomato sauce, with some salt and pepper. Simmer for around 25 minutes, stirring and tasting occasionally.
  4. After 25 minutes, add salt/pepper as necessary from taste. Five minutes later add lemon juice to taste. You can also add some cilantro if you want.
  5. Serve with white rice, bread, or pita.
