1
Prep the ingredients
Cutting Board
Chef’s knife
Clean kitchen towel

Prep the ingredients: rinse the rice, cut the tofu into 3/4-inch cubes, cut the broccoli, slice the carrots and cabbage, slice the green onions, and mince the garlic; pat the tofu dry with a clean towel.

Keep fingers tucked while slicing the carrots, cabbage, and green onions.

1 1/2 cups white rice
14 ounces tofu
3 cups broccoli
2 cups carrot
3 cups green cabbage
4 Count green onion
2 Count garlic
2
Cook the rice
Medium saucepan with lid
Measuring cups and spoons

In a medium saucepan, combine white rice and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes until the water is absorbed.

1 1/2 cups white rice
2 cups Water
3
Rest and fluff the rice
Medium saucepan with lid
Fork

Turn off the heat and let the rice sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork until the grains are tender and separate.

Use caution when lifting the rice lid because hot steam can burn.

4
Make the soy sesame sauce
Small bowl
Measuring cups and spoons

In a small bowl, stir together soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, garlic, and brown sugar until the sugar mostly dissolves.

1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 Count garlic
1 tablespoon brown sugar
5
Brown the tofu
Spatula
Large skillet

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden on several sides.

Use a dry towel when patting tofu, and keep water away from hot oil to reduce splattering.

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
14 ounces tofu
6
Cook the vegetables
Spatula
Large skillet

Add broccoli, carrots, and cabbage to the skillet. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

3 cups broccoli
2 cups carrot
3 cups green cabbage
7
Glaze with sauce
Spatula
Large skillet

Pour in the soy sesame sauce and toss to coat. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce lightly coats the tofu and vegetables and smells savory and nutty.

8
Assemble and serve

Divide the rice among bowls, top with the tofu and vegetables, and finish with green onions. Serve hot.
