Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cooked jasmine rice
- 1 block (14 ounces) firm tofu, pressed and diced
- 2 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 1 cup cucumber, julienned
- 1/2 cup radishes, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup scallions, sliced
- 1/2 cup pickled mango (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon chili sauce (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the jasmine rice according to the instructions on the package, then allow it to cool slightly.
- In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced tofu and sauté until it turns a crispy golden brown, roughly 8-10 minutes.
- Drizzle the tamari or soy sauce over the tofu, stirring frequently to ensure each piece is coated. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce is well absorbed. Remove from heat and keep warm.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated carrots, julienned cucumber, sliced radishes, chopped parsley, and scallions. Gently toss the ingredients together until evenly mixed.
- To create your bowl, layer the jasmine rice as the foundation. Spoon the golden tofu on top, followed by the vibrant vegetable medley.
- Finish with a generous scoop of pickled mango and a drizzle of chili sauce if you like some heat. Season with salt and pepper to your preference.
