INGREDIENTS
250g Extra-Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Shelled Edamame (80g)
1/2 cup Chickpeas, canned (82g)
1/2 medium Cucumber (~50g)
1/2 cup Shredded Carrots (61g)
1/4 cup Pickled Daikon Radish (40g)
1 cup Mixed Greens (50g)
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Rice Vinegar
1 tsp Maple Syrup
1/2 tsp Asian Five-Spice Powder
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Fresh Ginger (minced)
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro (chopped)
1 small Fresh Jalapeño (sliced)
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess water, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
In a bowl, combine the tofu cubes with Asian five-spice powder, garlic powder, and minced ginger. Toss well to evenly coat.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a light spray of cooking oil. Pan-fry the tofu cubes until all sides are golden and crispy, about 6-8 minutes.
While the tofu is cooking, prepare the dressing by whisking together low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and maple syrup in a small bowl.
Assemble the bowl by layering mixed greens, sliced cucumber, shredded carrots, and pickled daikon radish. Add the shelled edamame and chickpeas on top.
Place the crispy tofu over the bed of vegetables. Drizzle the dressing evenly across the bowl.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and sliced jalapeño for an extra burst of flavor and heat.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vibrant, protein-packed Banh Mi bowl.
