   In a large non-stick pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
3. 03
   Add tofu cubes to the pan and cook until golden and crispy on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove tofu and set aside.
4. 04
   In the same pan, add minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. 05
   Add snow peas to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
6. 06
   Return the tofu to the pan.
7. 07
   In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch slurry. Pour over tofu and snow peas.
8. 08
   Toss everything together until the sauce thickens and coats the tofu and vegetables evenly, about 1 minute.
9. 09
   Remove from heat and serve immediately.
