Instructions
1.
Place the rice and 400ml of water in a medium-size pot. Bring it to a boil and reduce the heat to a minimum. Cover the pot and let the rice cook for 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it rest for approx. 5 minutes.
2.
Peel the onion and carrot and cut them into thin strips. Wash the pepper and cut it into thin strips. Chop the chives and save them until the end. Sauté all vegetables in 2 tablespoons of olive oil for 5-8 minutes until they're nice and crisp. Optionally season and set aside.
3.
Wrap the tofu in a clean cloth and absorb any of the water until the tofu is very dry. Let it sit for 2 minutes while covered.
4.
For the barbecue sauce: finely chop or grate the ginger, garlic and half of the dried chilli. Mix it in a bowl together with the tomato sauce and barbecue sauce mix. Make sure it's well mixed and set aside.
5.
Place the corn flour and the tofu in a bowl. Coat the tofu with the flour. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a frying pan and sauté the tofu without overlapping each other. Brown them over medium heat for 5 minutes and turn them around so all sides have an even colour. Once everything is sautéed, set aside.
6.
Remove the remaining flour from the pan and add the barbecue sauce. Let it cook for 2 minutes to reduce the volume and for it to thicken. Add the tofu and mix everything together for 1 minute.
