This dish ticks all the boxes - sweet, sticky, and savoury! Tender honey soy tofu meets fragrant garlic rice, while a creamy slaw and crunchy peanuts bring the perfect balance of freshness and crunch. It’s a little bit sweet, a little bit tangy, and a whole lot delicious!
We’ve replaced the crushed peanuts in this recipe with crispy shallots due to local ingredient availability. It'll be just as delicious, just follow you recipe card!
