Cooking Steps
- Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
- 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 heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then green onion whites, snap peas and peppers. Cook, stirring often, until veggies are tender-crisp, 3-4 min.
- Remove from heat, transfer veggies to a plate.
- Meanwhile, add vinegar, brown sugar, ginger-garlic puree, soy sauce, cornstarch and 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water to a medium bowl. 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, stirring occasionally, until tofu is golden-brown all over, 6-7 min.
- Add prepared sauce. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
- Add veggies to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until warmed through, 1-2 min.
- 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 it in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the pork, until golden-brown all over, 6-7 min.
