Instructions
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt. Stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat. • Keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• While the rice is cooking, thinly slice red onion (see ingredients). • In a small bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Scrunch sliced onion in your hands, then add to pickling liquid. • Add enough water to just cover onion. Set aside.
• Cut Japanese tofu into 2cm cubes. • Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. • Roughly chop Asian greens.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook tofu, tossing, until browned, 4 minutes. • Add Southeast Asian spice blend (see ingredients) and cook, tossing, until fragrant and tofu is coated, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate.
• Return pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook carrot, tossing, until tender, 3 minutes. Add Asian greens and cook until just wilted, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then add sweet chilli sauce and the soy sauce, tossing veggies to coat.
• Thinly slice long chilli (if using). Drain pickled onion. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with veggies and tofu. Drizzle with sesame dressing. • Garnish with pickled onion, chilli and crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
