• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Cook ginger paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt, then 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. 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!
• Meanwhile, cut Japanese tofu into 2cm chunks. • Finely chop garlic. • Trim green beans. Roughly chop Asian greens. • Thinly slice long chilli (if using).
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook tofu, tossing, until browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Add chilli jam, the soy sauce, sesame seeds, 1/2 the garlic and a splash of water to the pan. • Toss tofu to coat, then simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Transfer to a bowl. Cover to keep warm.
• Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans, tossing, until just tender, 3-4 minutes. • Add Asian greens and cook, tossing, until just tender and wilted, 2 minutes. • Add remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Season to taste.
• Divide ginger rice between bowls. Top with garlicky greens and chilli jam tofu. • Garnish with crispy shallots and chilli. • Serve with a dollop of mayonnaise. Enjoy!
