Ingredients

• 3 cups cooked jasmine rice
• 200 grams firm tofu
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 medium carrot, diced
• 1 medium bell pepper, diced
• 0.5 cup frozen peas
• 3 stalks green onions, sliced
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup cilantro, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Drain the tofu and press it under a heavy pan for at least 10 minutes to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into small cubes.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and fry until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove tofu from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced ginger and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 4

Add the diced carrots and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then mix them into the vegetables.

Step 6

Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir to combine with the vegetables and eggs.

Step 7

Pour the soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Add the fried tofu, frozen peas, black pepper, and salt. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sliced green onions and chopped cilantro.

Step 9

Serve the Vegetarian Combination Fried Rice hot, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
