Cooking Steps

Make the coconut rice
1
  • To a medium saucepan, add coconut milk, the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil.
  • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
  • Cook for 15 minutes, then remove the pan from heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

Get prepped
2
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber and tomato into rounds.
  • Cut firm tofu into 1cm chunks.
  • In a medium bowl, combine satay seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add tofu, tossing to coat.
Make the sambal
3
  • In a small bowl, combine shredded coconut and sambal. Set aside.

SPICY! The sambal is hot, use less if you're sensitive to heat.

Cook the tofu
4
  • When the rice has 5 minutes remaining, in a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • When the oil is hot, cook tofu, turning occasionally, until golden, 5-7 minutes. 
Flavour the tofu
5
  • Add ginger paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
Serve up
6
  • Divide coconut rice, fragrant ginger tofu, cucumber and tomato between bowls.
  • Sprinkle over crushed peanuts. Serve with coconut sambal. Enjoy!
