We’re stirring and frying these soft little tofu cubes in a lavish dark sauce. Bring out those garlic aromatics by cooking it into the greens and the rice. What tofu stir-fry would be complete without a drizzle of sriracha and sprinkle of crispy shallots. It’s a gold star from us!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Make the garlic rice
1

• Finely chop garlic. 
• In a medium saucepan, heat the plant-based 
butter with a dash of olive oil over medium 
heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant,  
1-2 minutes. 
• Add the water and a generous pinch of salt to 
pan and bring to the boil. 
• Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and 
reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then 
remove from heat and keep covered until rice is 
tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.   


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

Get prepped
2

• Meanwhile, cut plain Asian marinated tofu into 
2cm chunks. 
• Roughly chop Asian greens. 
• Trim ends of asparagus. 
• In a medium bowl, add tofu and cornflour 
(see ingredients). Gently toss until well coated.  
Set aside. 

Cook the veggies
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil 
over medium-high heat. Cook Asian greens and 
asparagus, tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. 
• Add the remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 
1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 
• Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.  


TIP: Add a dash of water to pan to help speed up the 
cooking process!

Cook the tofu
4

• When the rice has 5 minutes remaining, return 
frying pan to medium-high heat with a generous 
drizzle of olive oil. 
• When oil is hot, shake excess cornflour off the 
tofu, then cook, turning occasionally, until 
golden, 4-5 minutes. 

Make it saucy
5

• SPICY! This is a mild stir-fry sauce, but use less if 
you're sensitive to heat. Reduce heat to medium, 
then add sweet soy seasoning, Korean 
stir-fry sauce, the soy sauce and a splash of 
water. Cook, stirring, until coated, 1 minute.

Finish & serve
6

• Divide garlic rice between bowls. 
• Top with asparagus stir-fry and sticky Asian tofu 
(plus any remaining sauce from the pan).  
• SPICY! Use less sriracha if you’re sensitive to heat! 
Garnish with crispy shallots and drizzle over 
sriracha to serve. Enjoy!
