Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • 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.
Prep
2
  • 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.
Cook veggies
3
  • 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.
Make sauce
4
  • 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.
Cook tofu
5
  • 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. 
Finish and serve
6
  • 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.
