Preparation
1
Get Prepped

  • Pour 300ml salted water (double for 4p) into a pot for the rice.
  • Stir in the rice and bring to the boil. Lower heat to medium, cover and cook for 12 mins.
  • Remove from the heat. Keep covered for 12 mins or until ready to serve.
  • Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips. 
  • Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

2
Fry the Tofu

  • Drain the tofu and chop into 2cm cubes. Pat dry with kitchen paper. In a bowl, toss the tofu cubes with the soy sauce.
  • Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the tofu until slightly crispy, shifting frequently to ensure it doesn't burn, 6-8 mins.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove from the pan and set aside.

3
Simmer the Sauce

  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Fry the onion and pepper until softened, stirring occasionally, 4-5 mins.
  • Stir in the ketjap manis, vinegar, tomato paste and 100ml water (double for 4p).
  • Simmer until sauce has thickened, 3-5 mins. 
  • Once thickened, add the tofu and 2 tsp sugar (double for 4p) to the pan. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

TIP: Add a splash of water if you feel the sauce is too thick.

4
Finish and Serve

  • Serve the the rice in deep bowls.
  • Top with the sweet and sour tofu.
  • Garnish with cashews and chopped coriander.
