Here’s an offbeat way to present a stir-fry. Tofu-filled ravioli are like little dumplings in this dish. Do try to use hoisin sauce to finish the dish. It creates a nice brown glaze and adds just the right flavor kick to the mild ravioli.

Preparation
Step 1
In a large measuring cup or small mixing bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in a little water, then add enough water to make 1 cup. Add the remaining sauce ingredients, stir together, and set aside.
Step 2
Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan or small soup pot. Stir in the ravioli and edamame and simmer steadily for 6 to 8 minutes, or until just tender. Drain.
Step 3
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large stir-fry pan. Add the garlic and sauté over low heat until golden.
Step 4
In the following order, layer the eggplant, broccoli, carrots, and mushrooms in the pan. Pour in about 1/2 cup water. Cover and steam for 5 minutes, then lift the lid and stir. Continue to cook, uncovered, until the vegetables are tender-crisp, 3 to 4 minutes longer.
Step 5
Gently stir in the ravioli and edamame, followed by the sauce. Cook for a minute or so longer, until the sauce has thickened. Season with hoisin sauce or additional soy sauce and serve at once.
