Ingredients

  • 3/4 c jasmine rice
  • 3 scallions
  • 1/2 lb Hodo organic braised tofu
  • 1 or 2 heads organic baby bok choy (about ½ pound total)
  • 1/2 c organic mirepoix (onions carrots - celery)
  • 1/4 c peas
  • Vegetarian oyster sauce blend
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

Instructions

1

Cook the rice. Rinse the rice. In a small sauce pot, combine the rice and 1 1/4 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking until the rice is slightly dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, cover, and keep warm.

2

Prepare Ingredients. While the rice cooks, prepare the remaining ingredients. Trim the root ends from the scallions; thinly slice the scallions on the diagonal, keeping the white and green parts separate. Set aside the green parts for garnish. Cut the tofu into ¼-inch pieces. Trim the root ends from the bok choy; cut the bok choy in half lengthwise, then thinly slice on the diagonal.

3

Cook the fried rice. In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon oil until hot but not smoking. Add the mirepoix and white parts of the scallions, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the bok choy and rice and cook until the bok choy starts to wilt, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the peas, “oyster sauce” blend, and sesame oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4

Serve. Transfer the fried rice to individual bowls, garnish with the green parts of the scallions, and serve.
