Stir-Fried Tofu

Jasmine Rice

Method

Jasmine Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse and Cook Rice

    Rinse 1 cup of jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 1.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat.

  2. 2

    Simmer Rice

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 10 minutes.

Stir-Fried Tofu

  1. 3

    Prepare Tofu

    Drain the firm tofu and press it between paper towels to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil over medium-high heat.

  3. 5

    Cook Tofu

    Add the cubed tofu to the skillet and stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, until golden brown on all sides. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir for an additional minute.

  4. 6

    Add Soy Sauce

    Pour in 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and toss to coat the tofu evenly. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside.

Mixed Vegetables

  1. 7

    Stir-Fry Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced bell pepper, broccoli florets, julienned carrots, and snow peas. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 5-6 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

  2. 8

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the cooked tofu to the skillet with the vegetables. Toss everything together and cook for another 2 minutes. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
