Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Add 2/3 of the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the basmati rice, water and the salt, stir, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water has absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
While the rice is cooking, thinly slice the carrot (unpeeled) into half-moons. Trim the snow peas. Roughly chop the Asian greens. Cut the lemon (see ingredients list) into wedges. Cut each piece of Malaysian tofu into quarters.
Heat a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Add the mayonnaise, sesame oil (if using), soy sauce, sugar and rice wine vinegar. Mix well and set aside.
Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the carrot and a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until tender, 3-4 minutes. Add the snow peas, Asian greens and the remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the tofu and cook until golden, 2 minutes each side.
Divide the garlic rice between bowls and top with the veggies, tofu and sesame dressing. Sprinkle with the crispy shallots and serve with the lemon wedges.
