Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 package firm tofu
3 tablespoons corn starch
salt and pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (for frying, plus more if needed (or oil of choice))
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger (minced (from about a 1" piece))
2 eggs
3 cups cooked rice ((from 1 cup dry))
1 carrot (grated)
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen corn
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
salt and pepper (to taste)
2 scallions (chopped)
2 tablespoons fresh basil (chopped)
Sriracha hot sauce (for serving, optional)

Steps:

  • To make the tofu, cut a block of tofu into pieces approximately 1/4 inch thick, then cut those into four pieces each (so you have pieces approximately 1" x .5")
  • Arrange the tofu pieces on top of a paper towel (or other clean towel), sprinkle with salt, and put another towel on top. Place something heavy (like a cast iron skillet) on top of it. Allow to sit for approximately 10 minutes so the the moisture is drawn out of the tofu.
  • Place tofu in a medium sized bowl with cornstarch, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir/shake gently to coat the pieces of tofu in cornstarch.
  • Coat the bottom of a heavy skillet (cast iron recommended) with olive oil. Heat over medium-high heat, and add tofu. Allow to sit for 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown. Flip and allow to brown on other side, and remove to a clean paper towel to drain. You will probably need to do two-three batches.
  • To make the fried rice, in the same skillet as the tofu (or a wok), heat olive oil.
  • Add garlic and ginger; saute for one minute or until fragrant.
  • Crack eggs into skillet and stir to scramble, until just set.
  • Add rice to skillet and stir to incorporate.
  • Allow to sit undisturbed for a few minutes to brown. Using a thin metal spatula, flip rice over and allow to brown on other side.
  • Add carrot, peas, corn, sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and fried tofu.
  • Stir to incorporate, and allow to continue heating for a few minutes until all ingredients are warm.
  • Top with scallions and basil, as well as sriracha if desired.

12-Minute Scrambled Tofu Vegan Fried Rice image

Tofu replaces eggs for a protein-rich (and vegan) fried rice recipe. From chopping board to table in 12 minutes!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 12m

Number Of Ingredients 17

7 ounces (half of a 14-ounce block) extra-firm tofu
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup finely diced yellow onion (about 1/2 small onion)
1 medium clove garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil (divided)
1 thumb-sized knob ginger (peeled and minced) (about 1 tablespoon)
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
3 cups cooked brown rice (I like brown Basmati rice) (cold, day-old rice is best)
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 cup frozen peas
2-3 tablespoons Tamari or soy sauce
Chopped chives or other herbs
Chopped scallions
Sriracha sauce
Cooked and crumbled bacon
Diced avocado

Steps:

  • Set the tofu on a large cutting board and mash with a potato masher or fork until it's crumbled. Set aside.
  • Place a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil. When hot, add the onion. Saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute.
  • Add one tablespoon of the sesame oil, then add the ginger, smoked paprika, turmeric, and mashed tofu. Cook, stirring until the spices are well-incorporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Increase heat to medium-high. Add the remaining sesame oil and the rice. Cook, stirring frequently, until the rice sizzles and is thoroughly warmed through, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the corn, peas, and Tamari (or soy sauce) and cook until the veggies are warm, about one more minute.
  • Taste and add additional Tamari or soy sauce if desired.
  • Serve topped with chopped chives or other herbs of choice, chopped scallions, or even a little crumbled bacon for the carnivores' portions if you like. We like to pass the Sriracha with this fried rice, as well.
