Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic.
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium
heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add basmati rice, the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt. Stir,
then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for
10 minutes, then remove from heat.
• Keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don’t peek!
• While rice is cooking, trim and halve green beans. Thinly slice carrot into
half-moons. Roughly chop Asian greens.
• Thinly slice long chilli (if using). Cut Japanese tofu into 2cm cubes.
Set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine ponzu, the brown sugar, water (for the glaze)
and mixed sesame seeds.
• In a second small bowl, combine Japanese-style dressing and the
mayonnaise.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Cook green beans and carrot with a dash of water, tossing occasionally,
until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add Asian greens and cook until wilted,
1-2 minutes. Season with salt. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook tofu,
tossing, until golden, 2 minutes. Add ponzu glaze and cook, stirring, until
tofu is well coated and glaze is slightly thickened, 1 minute.
• Divide garlic rice between bowls.
• Top with ponzu-glazed tofu and veggies.
• Dollop with Japanese mayo. Sprinkle with chilli to serve. Enjoy!
