Ingredients

  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 340g extra firm tofu, drained, patted dry, crumbled
  • 1 garlic clove, grated or crushed
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • 40g salad onions, white parts thinly sliced, green parts finely chopped
  • 180ml hoisin sauce
  • 20ml light soy sauce
  • 200g jasmine rice, to serve
  • 130g carrots, peeled, finely grated
  • 40g radishes, thinly sliced into discs
  • 15ml rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp caster sugar

Method

Step 1

In a wok or large frying pan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the tofu, garlic, ginger and the salad onion whites to the pan along with a pinch of salt and fry, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 mins.

Step 2

Meanwhile, cook the jasmine rice according to the pack instructions.

Step 3

Add the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and 2 tbsp water to the tofu, mix well and simmer for 5 mins. Meanwhile, make the slaw.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, combine the grated carrot, radishes, ½ of the salad onion greens, rice vinegar and caster sugar. Season to taste.

Step 5

Once the tofu has absorbed most of the sauce and it has a sticky, thick and glossy consistency, assemble the tofu rice bowls.

Step 6

In 4 deep bowls, dish up some of the rice and tofu, then top with the carrot slaw and scatter over the remaining salad onion greens. Serve and enjoy.
