This hijiki and fried tofu stir-fry is a refreshing Chinese-style dish, lighter than traditional Japanese simmered hijiki. The sweetness of carrots, the savory fried tofu that soaks up the hijiki's flavor, and fluffy, half-cooked scrambled eggs create an exquisite harmony. Add Sichuan peppercorns to your liking for an even deeper flavor. This is Chef Wakiya's nutritious and easy go-to meal for everyday dining.
