Crispy Sesame-Ginger Tofu with Jasmine Rice
Enjoy a vibrant and satisfying dish featuring crispy tofu and a medley of flavors from fresh ginger, garlic, and a touch of sesame. Paired with a light jasmine rice and complemented by crunchy edamame, this dish pleasantly balances textures and tastes for a clean, nutritious meal.
INGREDIENTS
300 grams Firm Tofu
1/2 cup cooked Jasmine Rice
1/2 cup Shelled Edamame
1/2 tablespoon Sesame Oil
1 tablespoon Fresh Grated Ginger
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Cornstarch
2 tablespoons Chopped Scallions
1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture for at least 15 minutes; then cut it into bite-sized cubes.
In a bowl, gently toss the tofu cubes with cornstarch to lightly coat them.
Heat the sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook until golden and crispy on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the grated ginger, minced garlic, and low sodium soy sauce.
Once the tofu is crisp, reduce the heat slightly and pour the ginger-garlic sauce over the tofu, stirring to evenly coat and allow the flavors to meld for 1-2 minutes.
Meanwhile, reheat or prepare a serving of 1/2 cup jasmine rice and 1/2 cup shelled edamame (if not pre-cooked).
Plate the jasmine rice and edamame, then top with the crispy tofu. Garnish with chopped scallions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy the balance of crispy texture and tangy-sesame flavor.
