Preparation
-
Step 1
Press the tofu to remove excess water - this helps when frying. Slice into two-inch pieces that are half an inch thick.
-
Step 2
Let's get the rice and corn boiling. Rinse the rice, and get it cooking in a rice cooker, or in a pot of water. Start to boil some salted water and add the corn. Once these are going, keep an eye on them.
-
Step 3
Add the oil to a large pan and heat on high. Fry tofu on top and bottom for one-two minutes on each side until golden.
-
Step 4
Peel the onion and garlic, cut the onion into four. Add with all the remaining ingredients to a blender or food processor and process until smooth.
-
Step 5
Place the tofu and sauce in a pot and heat on high. Once it starts to simmer, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for around fifteen minutes or until the sauce has thickened to your liking, stirring occasionally to prevent the tofu from sticking.
-
Step 6
Serve the tofu & sauce on a bed of rice, and garnish with some corn on the side.
