Get started
- Start by dusting your Tofoo all over with cornflour. Add your rice and 1 1/2 cups of water to a pan and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to low, cover with a lid and cook for 13 mins.
- Meanwhile, heat your oil in a large, non-stick pan over a medium heat. Add your Tofoo to the pan and toss about for 5 mins until golden all over. Add your onions, peppers, chilli, ginger and garlic and fry for a further 5 mins until starting to soften and fragrant.
- Add your remaining ingredients plus a pinch of pepper and cook for a few mins. Remove your rice from the heat and give a fluff up with a fork. Divide into bowls and top with spring onion and sesame seeds if using. Tuck in!
