My little sister asked me for cooking something asian. So.. I love tofu, curry and rice. Don't like noodles... so I bought some very good and fresh ingredients and started.
Rice
I think you can read the method on every rice-pack. But here is the way I did it:
- Wash the rice till the water is clear.
- Boil the rice with the water and a tablespoon salt for 5 minutes.
- Let it cook on a smaller level for 13 minutes.
Curry-Tofu-Sauce
- During cooking the rice you can prepare the vegetables.
- Dice the tofu, zucchini, paprikas, tomatoes, pineapples and bananas.
- First of all roast the tofu in a fry pan. (If you have use a wok!) Then add one vegetable a time and roast. Add the cocosmilk and the different spices. I season always the rice too. So if you want you can add also some of the curry-instant to the vegetables. If it's hot enough take it away from the hotplate.
Now serve it on a nice plate. I made some rice-wits (?!) and serve the curry-vegetables in a small plate on the same plate. Of course you can also mix the rice and vegetables together and serve it as well. :-) However you prefer it... it will taste delicious! :)
Absolutely GORGEOUS presentation! I love bananas too. This sounds so interesting and good.
