Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
- Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, trim, then halve snap peas.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green parts separate.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then green onion whites, snap peas and peppers. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until veggies are tender-crisp.
- Remove from heat, transfer veggies to a plate.
- Meanwhile, to a medium bowl, add vinegar, brown sugar, ginger-garlic puree, soy sauce, cornstarch and 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water. Season with pepper, then whisk to combine.
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels, then crumble into pea-sized pieces.
- Reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook for 6-7 min, stirring occasionally, until tofu is browned all over.
- Add prepared sauce. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly.
- Add veggies to the pan, then cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until warmed through.
- Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the crispy shallots and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Season with salt, then stir to combine.
- Divide rice between bowls. Top with tofu-veggie mixture.
- Sprinkle remaining green onions and remaining crispy shallots over top.
If you've opted to get tofu, pat tofu dry with paper towels, then crumble into pea-sized pieces. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook for 6-7 min, stirring occasionally, until tofu is browned all over. Follow the rest of the recipe as written.
