It might seem like a lot of ingredients and effort but this is really very easy, and great one for doing some prep for the next day or two. Really tasty and really fresh. I was out of coriander for this one!
Buddha Bowl
A great fresh dish, and one great for lunch the next day too.
Ingredients
- 400 grammes Tofu
- 125 grammes Basmati rice
- 1/2 cup Black beans
- 1/2 cup Pinto beans
- 1 cup Sweetcorn
- 1 Avocado
- 6 Cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup Crispy onions
- Sriracha sauce
- 3 tsp Garlic and onion granules, chilli powder
- 2 tbsp Corn flour
- Salt and pepper
- 1 Stock cube
- 4 tbsp Sunflower oil
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
Rice
- Bring a litre of water to the bowl and add a stock cube
- Add the rice and move on to preparing the tofu
Tofu
- Cut the tofu in to cubes and press down firmly (without squashing) on paper towels to extract water
- Put the tofu pieces in a bow and add 2 tbsp of the spice mix and the corn flour and toss with the tofu
- Heat a pan and add generous amount of oil - I prefer sunflower oil for this, and place the tofu pieces in, turning occasionally until brown on all sides. Put aside and prepare the beans
Beans and corn
- Heat a pan and add some olive oil - add the beans and corn, add some spice mix and toss occasionally for 3-4 minutes
Salad
- Shred some lettuce, chopped up some avocado, quarter the cherry tomatoes
Dish up
- Add some olive oil, salt and pepper over the salad
- Add some Sriracha where ever desired
- Sprinkle all with some salt and pepper
And lunch tomorrow
