With golden pan‑fried tofu, fluffy eggs, crunchy veggies and lightly charred rice, it’s a satisfying weeknight dinner or meal‑prep favourite that delivers big flavour with minimal fuss.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil 
  • 250g cooked rice  
  • 3 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced  
  • 2 cups frozen vegetables of your choice  
  • 2 eggs  

To serve 

  • 375g firm tofu, sliced into small cubes and lightly pan fried until golden and crispy  
  • extra spring onion 
  • Greek or natural yoghurt  
  • sesame seeds 

Method

  1. Pan fry the tofu cubes until golden and crispy, then set them aside on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. 
  2. In a large frying pan, add the oil and bring to a high temperature. Add the rice and pan fry on high until crispy and slightly charred.  
  3. Add the frozen vegetables and continue to pan fry, stirring every minute. 
  4. Crack the eggs into the rice and stir to combine with the fried rice. This will also help to cook the egg.  
  5. Continue to stir every minute or until the fried rice is cooked to your liking.  
  6. Serve with spring onion, Greek yoghurt and sesame seeds.
