Vegan Tofu Poke Bowl
Recipe:
Ingredients:
For the Tofu Poke
1 block extra firm tofu, drained (approx. 350 g)
1/2 cup soy sauce or tamari 120 ml
3 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp sesame oil 15 g
2 tsp sambal oelek 14 g
1 tbsp grated ginger about 2” piece of ginger
3 cloves garlic grated (heaping 1 tsp)
1 tsp sesame seeds
For the Bowls:
1 1/4 cup short-grain brown rice or approx. 1/2 cup cooked rice per bowl
2 cups cucumber cut into ¼-inch diagonal half-moons (225 g)
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar or lime juice 15 mL
1 avocado diced
2 cups red cabbage thinly sliced (150 g)
1 large carrot peeled and grated (90g/1 cup packed)
1 cup edamame 178 g
4 green onions thinly sliced
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
2 large sheets nori thinly sliced with scissors or crumbled seaweed snacks
Instructions
Cook Rice: To a medium pot, add rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30-35 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Let rest, still covered for 5 mins. Season with salt, then fluff rice with a fork.
Press Tofu: Cut tofu in half lengthwise, so you have two thinner rectangles, then wrap in clean kitchen towels. Place on a dinner plate or cutting board. Weigh tofu down with a heavy object like a cast iron skillet, or large pot for at least 20 minutes.
Make Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, sambal, ginger, garlic and sesame seeds.
Marinate Tofu: Once tofu is pressed, cut into ½-inch cubes. Add tofu pieces to the bowl with the marinade, then toss to coat. Let marinate for 10-15 mins, tossing occasionally. Drain tofu, reserving the excess marinade. (Tip: You could also make the marinade in a Tupperware, then add tofu, seal and shake the container every now and again).
Make Seasoned Cucumber: Place cucumbers in a colander and add a few pinches of salt. Gently squeeze and toss with your hands until they begin to release liquid. Let sit for 5 mins. Squeeze again, drain and transfer to a small bowl.
