Preparation
Remove the tofu from its packaging, pat it dry thoroughly with a paper towel, and cut it into equal cubes. This step helps the tofu brown better and prevents excess water in the pan.
If using frozen green beans, blanch them for 3-4 minutes in hot water, then drain them well. If fresh, boil them briefly until they remain slightly crisp.
Heat a non-stick pan and add the sesame oil or olive oil. Add the tofu cubes and brown them for a few minutes, turning them gently on all sides.
Add the green beans to the tofu, then add the soy sauce, pepper, and, optionally, a little granulated garlic. Stir gently so that the flavors are evenly distributed.
Finally, sprinkle with sesame seeds and cook for another minute over low heat. Serve warm as a light, yet satisfying meal.
