Tofu Fried Rice

Giving our 2023 Fried Rice a little remix!

INGREDIENTS

• 300g leftover cooked rice

• 200g firm tofu

• 2 Tbsp corn starch

• 1/4 tsp of each salt and pepper

• 2 tsp oil

• 2 whole eggs

• 2 sprigs of spring onion, mince the white part and finely slice the green

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 100g edamame beans

Sauce:

• 1 Tbsp oyster sauce

• 1 Tbsp soy sauce

• 1 Tbsp rice vinegar

• 1 tsp sesame oil

METHOD

1. Pat the tofu dry and cut into small cubes. Toss the tofu with cornstarch, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

2. Mix sauce ingredients together. Set aside.

3. Heat 1 tsp of oil in a large non-stick or wok-style pan over medium-high heat. Add tofu and fry until golden and crisp on all sides (about 6–8 minutes). Remove from the pan and set aside.

4. In the same pan, add another ½ tsp of oil if needed. Crack in the eggs and scramble gently until just cooked. Transfer to the same plate as the tofu.

5. Add the remaining ½ tsp oil to the pan. Sauté the white parts of the spring onion and garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

6. Add the edamame beans and cook for 2–3 minutes until tender. Then, add the leftover rice, breaking up any clumps. Stir-fry for another 2–3 minutes until everything is heated through.

7. Return the tofu and egg to the pan. Pour in the sauce ingredients and stir well to coat everything evenly.

8. Toss through the green parts of the spring onion. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot.
