Fried rice with masala tofu. This is an extra-firm, already marinated tofu bought at the grocery store.
Servings : 6
Ingredients
2 cups (500 ml) rice (I used brown rice)
1 broccoli, in small bouquets
1 block (350 g) extra-firm tofu, diced
7 Tbsp (105 ml) neutral oil (I used sunflower oil)
1 package of mushrooms (227 g), sliced
1 zucchini, diced
1 bell pepper, diced
1 onion, coarsely chopped
Soy sauce (to taste)
1 Tbsp (15 ml) sesame oil
Preparation
Follow the directions on the package to cook the rice.
Meanwhile, cook the broccoli (I recommend steaming to conserve more nutrients).
In a large skillet, brown the tofu in 3 Tbsp of oil, turning it regularly, until crispy and yellow. Remove from pan and set tofu aside.
In the same pan, put a little (about 2 Tbsp) of oil and cook the vegetables, starting with the peppers, then the onions and the zucchini. Finish with the mushrooms, since it’s the vegetable that cooks the fastest. Remove from pan and set vegetables aside.
Put the rest of the oil in the pan and fry the rice, adding soy sauce (to taste) and sesame oil from time to time. This step may take about 20 minutes.
Once the rice is fried, add the tofu and the vegetables to reheat everything.
