• 1 fennel bulb, stalks removed, fronds set aside for garnish
• 1 courgette, topped and tailed

To serve:

Method
1 Heat the oil or butter in a large frying pan on a medium heat. Finely chop the onion and garlic, add them to the pan together with the ginger, and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onion begins to soften.
2 Roughly chop the fennel and courgette and cut the tofu into cubes. Add the vegetables and tofu to the pan and sauté for a further 5 minutes.

5 Serve topped with a sprinkling of corn kernels, feta, herbs and seasoning and a generous squeeze of lime juice and a drizzle of olive oil.
