Cooking Steps
- Before starting, 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.
- Wash and dry all produce
- 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 from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions.
- Cut cucumber into 1/2-inch rounds.
- To a small bowl, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) rice vinegar, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Stir to combine.
- Add cucumbers, then season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- To a medium bowl, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) rice vinegar, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) spicy mayo and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar. Stir to combine. (NOTE: Reserve remaining spicy mayo for serving.)
- Add coleslaw cabbage mix and half the green onions. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to toast the sesame seeds.)
- When hot, add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast for 3-4 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
- Transfer to a plate.
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels. Using a fork, poke tofu all over, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Reheat the same pan over medium-high, then add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil.
- When hot, add tofu. Cook for 6-7 min, turning occasionally, until crispy and browned all over.
- Remove from heat, then add sweet chili sauce and soy sauce. Toss to coat.
- To the pot with rice, add sesame seeds. Fluff rice with a fork and stir to combine.
- Divide rice between bowls, then top with coleslaw, tofu and cucumber.
