Description

Ingredients

• 1½ cups jasmine rice
• 1 can light coconut milk
• 1¼ cup water
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 block organic tofu
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil (for cooking)
• sesame seeds
• 1 cup thinly sliced cabbage
• ¼ cup thinly sliced radishes
• 1 cup white vinegar
• 1 cup water
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tbsp sugar
• sliced avocado,
• sliced cucumber
• shredded carrots
• edamame beans

Directions

• Add your coconut milk, water, and salt to a medium pot and bring to a boil.
• Add in your Jasmine rice, cover, and let simmer on low for 18 minutes. (Dont peek!) Once your rice is done, remove from element, remove top, and let cool.
• While your rice is cooking, prepare your tofu.
• Slice the tofu as you please, and place in a bowl with sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and maple syrup. Let sit and marinade for 15-30 minutes.
• While your tofu is marinading, prepare your picked veggies.
• Add your cabbage and radishes in bowl or Tupperware with vinegar, water, salt and sugar. (I prepare mine in 2 separate containers.)
• Let sit for 15 minutes.
• Now lets cook the tofu.
• In a medium saucepan, heat vegetable oil on medium-high heat.
• Remove tofu from marinade, and add to pan. Bring heat down to medium and cook on each side until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes a side.
• Once tofu is cooked toss with sesame seeds.
• Serve your bowls with rice, tofu, pickled veggies, and other optional toppings. Top with favourite soy sauce. (I recommend Maggies to go with the coconut rice!)
