Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Tofu Fried Rice.
Step 1
Begin by marinating the tofu in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, allowing it to soak up the flavors while you prep the other ingredients.
Step 2
In a skillet, heat a splash of vegetable oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Toss in the chopped onion and carrot, sautéing them until they achieve a delightful golden-brown hue, which should take about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Next, introduce the marinated tofu along with its marinade to the skillet, cooking for an additional 2 to 3 minutes while stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Step 5
Now, it's time to add the cooked rice, mixing it thoroughly into the skillet and letting it all cook together for about 3 minutes.
Step 6
Create a cozy space in the skillet by pushing the rice mixture to one side, then crack the eggs into the empty section.
Step 7
Allow the eggs to cook for roughly 2 minutes until they begin to set, then fold them into the rice and tofu mixture, ensuring everything is beautifully combined.
Step 8
Add the chopped tomato to the skillet, stirring it in for another minute to meld the flavors.
Step 9
Finally, season your fried rice masterpiece with the remaining soy sauce, a pinch of white sugar, salt, and ground white pepper to taste.
Step 10
Serve this vibrant dish hot, and enjoy the delightful medley of flavors and textures.
Step 11
For an extra touch, consider garnishing with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added crunch and visual appeal.
