This is the easiest thing I think I have ever made, and it's only flaw is that it is lacking in vegetables. Which means you must also have a bit of stir fry veggie along with it. MUST.
Asian Rice Bowls
Cook some long grain rice, preferably brown basmati, but white if you don't have the taste for it.
2 cups uncooked rice plus 4 cups water = a lot of cooked rice!
1 package of silken tofu, extra firm
2 green onions
toasted sesame seeds (you take ordinary ones and toast them, ok?)
tamari (or soy if you don't have)
sesame oil
Chop the green onions, put them in a dish with 1 tsp sesame oil, a couple Tbsp of tamari, and then you cube the tofu and drop it in there. Mix it about gently to coat the tofu. Inhale. MMMM.
Use a large spoon to scoop rice into 4 bowls. Maybe 1 cup rice per bowl or less. Then just plonk the tofu and sauce on top of the rice, dividing it evenly...and sprinkle some more chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds on top. OH! I just thought of this - I wonder if gomasio, which is a macrobiotic seasoning made of ground sesame and sea salt, would be good sprinkled on top. Probably salty but good.
Serves 4, don't forget the stir fry veggies!
