Tofu Fried Rice From Cooking Light Food

SHEET PAN FRIED RICE WITH TOFU

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and ginger in a medium bowl until just combined. Set aside. Combine the rice, tofu and vegetables in a large bowl. Add the sauce and gently fold together with a rubber spatula until the rice is fully coated. Spread the mixture on the prepared baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until slightly browned, another 12 to 15 minutes. Garnish with the scallions and serve with hot sauce, if desired.

FRIED RICE WITH TOFU

Steps:

• Combine tofu and 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a bowl and marinate while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and carrot; cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add tofu and marinade and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in rice and cook for 3 minutes while stirring.
• Move all ingredients to one half of the skillet and crack eggs into the empty half. Cook for 2 minutes until eggs start to set. Mix eggs and the rest of the ingredients until well combined. Season with remaining soy sauce and sugar; mix well.
• Stir tomato into the skillet; cook and mix for 1 minute. Season with salt, white pepper, and more soy sauce if desired.

12-MINUTE SCRAMBLED TOFU VEGAN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Set the tofu on a large cutting board and mash with a potato masher or fork until it's crumbled. Set aside.
• Place a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil. When hot, add the onion. Saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute.
• Add one tablespoon of the sesame oil, then add the ginger, smoked paprika, turmeric, and mashed tofu. Cook, stirring until the spices are well-incorporated, about 2 minutes.
• Increase heat to medium-high. Add the remaining sesame oil and the rice. Cook, stirring frequently, until the rice sizzles and is thoroughly warmed through, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the corn, peas, and Tamari (or soy sauce) and cook until the veggies are warm, about one more minute.
• Taste and add additional Tamari or soy sauce if desired.
• Serve topped with chopped chives or other herbs of choice, chopped scallions, or even a little crumbled bacon for the carnivores' portions if you like. We like to pass the Sriracha with this fried rice, as well.
