Ingredients
Tofu
- 1 Tbsp cornflour
- 300g tofu
- 1/2 pack Korean sticky chilli sauce
- 1 drizzle of oil
To Serve
- 1/2 pack Peanut Dust
- 1 bunch coriander, leaves picked
Slaw
- 100g mung bean sprouts
- 150g slaw
- 1 baby bok choy, thinly sliced
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
Rice
- 1 1/2 cup boiling water
- 1/2 tsp makrut lime powder
- 150g short grain rice
Peanut Sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce

Steps
-
Preheat oven to 230°C (or 210°C fan bake). Bring a half-full kettle to the boil.
-
Pat tofu dry and tear into chunks roughly 2cm. Add to a medium bowl, season with salt and gently toss together with cornflour and oil, until well coated. Transfer to a lined oven tray, spread into a single layer and bake on upper oven rack for 15-20 minutes, until golden.
-
Combine rice, makrut lime powder, boiling water measure and a pinch of salt in a small pot and bring to the boil with the lid on. Once boiling, reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and steam, covered, for 5 more minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Thinly slice bok choy, juice lemon and toss together in a large bowl with remaining salad ingredients and a pinch of salt. Pick coriander leaves and set aside to serve.
-
Whisk all peanut sauce ingredients together in a small pot, until combined. Bring to a simmer on medium-high heat. Once simmering, remove from heat. Cover and keep warm.
-
Once tofu has finished baking, remove tray from oven, drizzle over Korean sticky chilli sauce and toss to coat tofu.
-
Rice, slaw and tofu topped with peanut sauce, coriander and peanut dust.
