This has got to be the BEST vegan chinese fried rice Eveeerrr!!!
Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 3 Cups Cooked Basmati Rice cooked the day before and placed in the fridge overnight
- 1 Cup Mixed Vegetables I used the frozen package
- 1 Cup Chopped Green Onions
- 5 oz Scrambled tofu see recipe below
- 6 oz Tofu cut in strips see recipe below
- 1/2 Link Tofurky Sausage cut in cubes
- 2 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Tsp Grated Ginger
- 1/4 Cup Strong Flavor Soy Sauce I used HemisFares Double Fermented Soy Sauce
- 3 Tbsp Agave Syrup
- 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
- 1 Tsp Sesame Oil
- Salt + Pepper to Taste
Scrambled Tofu
- 5 oz Extra firm tofu
- 1/4 Tsp Black Salt
- Dash of Turmeric
Tofu Strips
- 1 Tsp Corn Starch
- 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1/2 Tsp Agave Syrup
- Pinch Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Tofu Strips
- To the tofu strips, add the corn starch, soy sauce, salt and pepper and the agave syrup and mix everything to incorporate the ingredients.
- Grease your grill with some cooking spray and place the tofu strips on the grill (I use the George Foreman Grill). Let the strips grill for about five minutes then set them aside.
Scrambled Tofu
- Add the black salt and turmeric on the scrambled tofu and mix to incorporate.
- Place a wok on medium heat then add the scrambled tofu (no need to add any oil since the tofu has moisture). Sautéed for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the tofu turns golden brown. Then set it aside.
Fried Rice
On the same wok, add the diced tofurkey sausage and toast them for a minute or two just to dry them, then set it aside (this step is optional).
- Still on the same wok, add the coconut oil and sesame oil as well as the crushed ginger and garlic. Fry them for a minute or so.
- Crushed the overnight rice so that it's grainy, then add it to the garlic and ginger and mix well for optimum flavor.
- Add the mixed vegetables, scrambled tofu, the tofurkey sausage, the grilled tofu strips, the HemisFares Double Fermented soy sauce, the salt and pepper, and the agave syrup. Then mix everything for all the flavors to be absorbed. Continue to toss everything for about 5 minutes, then add the green onions to finish up.
