Easy Vegan Fried Rice
ingredients
Half a block (200g) of tofu
1 onion
Olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
Thumb of ginger
1 carrot
2 tbsp peanut butter
1 tsp sriracha
1 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp soy sauce
Leftover rice (approx. 2 cups)
Splash of plant milk
Juice of a lime/lemon
Handful of spinach
method
Drain and press the tofu.
Chop the onion and add to a pan over medium heat with some olive oil.
While the onion is cooking, chop the garlic and ginger, then add to the pan when the onion is translucent.
Crumble in the tofu with your fingers, breaking it up into small pieces.
Grate the carrot, then add into the pan along with the peanut butter, sriracha, maple syrup and soy sauce and stir together.
Pour in the leftover rice with a dash of milk, lime juice and a handful of spinach and stir through.
Fry over a high heat until the spinach has wilted and everything has cooked and warmed through.
notes
Try peppers, mushrooms, courgettes, broccoli, peas, sweetcorn or any other vegetables you have in the fridge.
This meal would also work without the tofu as a tasty fried rice side dish.
