INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Brown Basmati Rice
1.3 cups cooked roasted Chickpeas
120 grams Extra-Firm Tofu
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Saffron Threads
1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
1 clove minced Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Rinse and drain the cooked chickpeas, then toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, half the turmeric, cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking tray and roast them for 20-25 minutes until they turn crispy, stirring halfway through.
Meanwhile, prepare the rice by warming it gently in a pot with a pinch of saffron, the remaining turmeric, and a splash of water to infuse the flavors.
Cut the extra-firm tofu into cubes and lightly season with salt and pepper. Optionally, you can sauté the tofu for 3-4 minutes to firm up its texture.
Assemble the bowl by layering the saffron-infused yellow rice as the base, then top with the roasted chickpeas and tofu cubes.
Finish with a sprinkle of minced garlic and an extra dash of cumin if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your nutrient-rich, aromatic bowl.
