Wash and chop your broccoli head into desired pieces. Chop the garlic and scallion into fine pieces and slice the onion and bell pepper.
Dry your extra firm tofu with a paper towel and chop into bite sized cubes. Toss with the salt, dry seasonings, and flour. Place on a tray and spray with oil. Allow this to cook in the air fryer or oven for about 15 minutes at 375 F/ 190 C.
Sautee the fresh herb in oil for about 2-3 minutes or until fragrant. Add in the broccoli, stir, and allow everything to sauté for the next 3 minutes.
Add the peanut butter, dry seasonings, 1/2 cup coconut milk, and water and stir. Allow the mixture to simmer for the next 5-7 minutes. Only add the extra 1/3 cup coconut milk if the mixture is too thick.
Once the tofu is ready, add that into the sauce and enjoy with rice or quinoa!
