Step 1: Rice
Always wash rice before cooking, drain off excess water with sieve.
Gas Hob (100g rice with 150g water)
- Bring to boil on medium to high heat. (Take off the lid if the water starts to overspill.)
- Turn down to low, cover with lid and cook until water is fully absorbed. (approximately 10 minutes)
- Turn the gas off and rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
Microwave (100g rice with 200g water)
- Microwave on high for 10 to 15 minutes with no lid
- Take out of the microwave, cover with lid and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 2: Tofu and egg (same time as step 1)
- Cut the potatoes into small chunks.
- Add some oil to a casserole dish or a non stick pot and place over medium to high heat.
- Cook the potatoes with a pinch of salt until they are golden brown outside, then add in onions and continue to cook until they are softened a little.
- In the meantime, boil the egg/eggs in a separate pot for 3 minute and fry the tofu in a frying pan over medium heat, then set them aside.
- Add in carrots, peeled boiled egg/eggs and sauce to the dish along with onions and potatoes and cook over low heat with lid on until potatoes and carrots are tender.(Add some water if is needed.)
- Add in tofu and stir well together.
Step 3: Vegetables (5 minutes before step 2 is done.)
- Add a little oil to wok or frying pan and place over medium to high heat.
- Add in vegetables, season with salt and stir continuously for 1 minute.
- Add a little water just to cover the bottom of the pan and cook with lid on until the vegetables are tender.
