 2 cloves garlic, minced
 500 g extra firm tofu, cut into 2cm cubes
 1 large red capsicum, sliced into thin strips
 1 large green capsicum, sliced into thin strips
 2 large carrots, thinly sliced
 2 cups red cabbage, grated
 1 tbsp cornflour
 2 tbsp honey
 2 tbsp soy sauce, reduced salt
 4 cups cooked brown rice
 2 spring onions, sliced
 1 cup coriander, chopped (optional)
 ¼ cup sesame seeds to top (optional)

Method

1

Cook the onion over high heat in a wok with the 2/3 of the oil until translucent, then add the garlic until fragrant.

2

Stir through both varieties of capsicum, cabbage and carrot, until firm but still cooked.

3

In a separate pan, fry the tofu over high heat in the remaining oil until golden brown.

4

Add the tofu to the vegetable mix on medium heat. Add the soy sauce, honey, corn starch and stir through for 5 minutes.

5

Top with the shallots, coriander and sesame seeds.

6

Serve in separate bowls over approx. 1/2 cup of brown rice.

Variations

  • Depending on the season, try adding Bok Choy, yellow capsicum, Chinese cabbage or Chinese broccoli for colour and variety.

Tips

  • The cornflour is used to thicken the sauce, ensure it’s dissolved through the sauce before turning the heat off.
