Tofu & Green Bean Stir Fry

The fiber content in vegetables. Don't you think it should be part and parcel of our daily meals? If you are asking me, its an outright truth. In my house, I make a point in making at least one vegetable dish. Anything for the matter. Though usually, stir fries are keep as a minimialist or to the basic. Of course, every now and then, when the situation warrants for, especially when you don't want to let the veggies and other ingredients you have in the fridge to go to waste (Kacang Buncis Tempe Goreng/Beans Tempe Stir Fried, Brinjal Stir Fry & Curried Tamarind Ladies Fingers). This Tofu & Green Beans Stir Fry? As a matter of fact, for using up the ingredients I already had and an interesting combo from my kitchen. Stir fried. Tofu, beans, squid/sotong, tofu (Indian Tofu Curry) and spring onion. 

Ingredients:
200g french beans - remove strings and slice diagonally as thin as possible
80g squids/sotong - cleaned and cut into rings
1 piece (90g) hard white tofu - cut into pieces
4 pips garlic - chopped
2 stalks spring onion - sliced into 1 inch length
3 tbsp oil
Salt for taste

Method
In heated oil, fry tofu cubes until golden brown.
Remove and keep aside
In the same oil, fry garlic and squids for about 3-4 mins.
Add beans and stir in.
Pour 2 tbsp water to cook and soften the beans.
Season with salt, combine in tofu and spring onion.
Dish out.
