any thinly sliced veg (onions, carrots, mushrooms, peppers, plus beansprouts etc)
or you can get ready sliced stir fry packs in sainsbos, they are surprisingly cheap Smile

Make sure it fried crispy otherwise it tastes like it looks.
Crispy tofu, on the other hand is scrummy!

You could try freezing tofu. Freeze it for a couple of days, then defrost and squeeze out water. Texture becomes like having been deepfried. It soaks up the cooking sauces. Yum!

Can it be fried in a frying pan or does it have to be a chip pan? We don't own a chip pan.

Freezing sounds interesting

Something like this but without that fuss in freezing and defrosting.
