Instructions

1

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Pop a deep saucepan (with a tight-fitting lid) on medium heat. Melt in the butter (see pantry for amount).

When the butter has melted, add half the garlic and stir-fry for 1 min. Stir in the rice until coated, 1 min. 

Add 0.25 tsp salt and the water for the rice (see pantry for amount) and bring to the boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to medium and cover with the lid. Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pan from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

2

Meanwhile, drain the tofu and thoroughly pat dry with kitchen paper. Tear into 3cm chunks.

Add the tofu to a medium bowl with the cornflour. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. 

Trim the cucumber, then halve lengthways. Cut into 1cm thick half moons. 

Put the rice vinegar, ginger puree, soy sauce, sweet chilli sauce, peanut butter, honey and water (see pantry for both amounts) into another bowl and mix together with a fork until well combined. Set aside.

3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium heat. When hot, add the cabbage and and the remaining garlic and stir-fry for 2 mins.

Season with salt and pepper, add a splash of water, mix well and cover with a lid (or foil). Cook until just tender, 3-4 mins. Once cooked, transfer the cabbage into a medium bowl. Add the cucumber and set aside.

Set aside your pan - you'll use it after the rice for the tofu.

4

Once the rice is cooked, In a medium bowl, whisk the egg (see pantry for amount) until combined and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.

Pour the egg into the frying pan and cook for 30 secs without stirring, then gently stir to break it up, making sure the egg doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.

Once cooked, add the rice to the egg along with a third of the soy sauce, and stir together. Remove from the heat and set the pan aside while you cook the tofu.

5

Heat a drizzle of oil in a your frying pan from earlier, on high heat. Once hot, fry the tofu until slightly crispy, 8-10 mins. Turn frequently to ensure it doesn't burn. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the sauce you made in step 2 and stir together. Simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 mins, then remove the pan from the heat. TIP: Add a splash of water if it's a little thick. Taste and season with salt and pepper if you feel it needs it.

Add the tofu and sauce to the bowl with the cabbage and cucumber and mix together until combined.

6

Reheat the rice if necessary and divide between bowls.

Top with the Anhui bang tofu.

Sprinkle over the sesame seed and enjoy!
