Asian-style tofu stir-fry Recipe

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ lime, zest and juice
  • large pinch chilli flakes
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 150g/5½oz tofu, cut into pieces
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • ¼ onion, finely sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • ¼ red pepper, chopped
  • handful spinach leaves
  • 150g/5½oz basmati rice, cooked according to packet instructions and drained
  1. For the marinated tofu, combine all the marinade ingredients, except the vegetable oil, in a bowl and mix well. Add the tofu, coat in the mixture and allow to marinate for 5-10 minutes, or longer if possible.
  2. Heat a wok over a medium heat. Remove the tofu from the marinade, setting the marinade aside. Fry the tofu for 5-10 minutes until golden-brown all over. Strain the marinade to remove any small pieces of tofu.
  3. For the rice, heat the oil in a pan and fry the onions and garlic for 2-3 minutes until softened, then add the pepper and fry until the tofu for 2 minutes. Add the spinach, rice and reserved marinade and heat through for a further 3-4 minutes.
  4. Serve the rice with the marinated tofu on top.
