Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into small cubes.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Julienne the carrots, slice the bell peppers, chop the green onions, and slice the mushrooms.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Tofu

    In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and sauté until golden brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 4

    Prepare Garlic Butter

    In the same skillet, add the butter and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 5

    Cook the Vegetables

    Add the sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, carrots, corn, bean sprouts, and edamame to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked rice, sautéed tofu, soy sauce, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Mix well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the tofu pepper rice hot, garnished with the chopped green onions on top.
