I fell in love with this dish at my local Thai restaurant. Steamed spinach and baked tofu is smothered in a sweet peanut sauce. Serve over steamed white sticky rice. You can substitute chicken or other meat if you prefer.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups uncooked sushi (sticky) or medium-grain rice
4 cups water
⅔ cup peanut butter
1 cup hot water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons white sugar
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 green onions, chopped
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 (10 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
1 (8 ounce) package baked tofu, cut into bite-size pieces

Steps:

  • Combine the rice and 4 cups of water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • In a separate saucepan, whisk together the peanut butter, 1 cup hot water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, garlic, green onions and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, and adding more hot water 1/4 cup at a time to maintain a pourable consistency.
  • Bring about 1 inch of water to a boil in a large pot. Place the spinach and tofu into a steamer basket and set over the boiling water. Cover and steam until spinach has wilted and tofu is heated through, about 7 minutes.
  • To serve, place spinach and tofu over white rice and smother in peanut sauce.

These Swimming Angels were a disappointment. They were dry and bland, and the frosting was too sweet. I won't be making them again.

The Swimming Angels were easy to make and very tasty. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of frosting. The cream cheese frosting was a bit too heavy for my taste.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the Swimming Angels turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with just the right amount of sweetness. I served them with a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate sa
