- Tofu is a good source of protein and is one of the main ingredients in this zesty vegan rice bowl recipe.
➡️ In this recipe, I form a thick paste with strained tomatoes and a mix of onions, garlic, oregano, rosemary, thyme, cayenne pepper, and more.
Then I steam the basmati rice on the pan till it is cooked then I add the fried tofu to complete the dish.
This is a very easy recipe if you're bored with your usual rice bowls.
➡️ This healthy and protein-rich vegan rice dish can serve as a snack or a stand-alone dinner. Add a twist to your regular rice bowl by using this savory tofu rice recipe that can even be enjoyed even by your non-vegan friends.

▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (3 to 4 servings)
400g Firm Tofu (I have used organic non-gmo tofu)
1+1/2 Cup / 300g White BASMATI Rice
(Wash the rice thoroughly until water runs clear and Soaked for 30 minutes)
3 to 4 Tablespoons - Light Olive oil for frying tofu and Onions
1+1/2 / 200g Cup Onion - finely chopped
1 Tablespoon Garlic - finely chopped (4 to 5 garlic cloves)
1/2 Teaspoon Dry Oregano
1/2 Teaspoon Dry Rosemary
1/2 Teaspoon Dry Thyme
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper or to taste (Optional)
Salt to taste (I have added total 1+ 1/4 Teaspoon of Pink Himalayan salt)
1 Cup / 250ml Strained Tomatoes / Passata / Tomato Puree
2 Cups / 500ml Vegetable Broth
(the above quantity of broth will give you chewy rice, however, if you like your rice slightly soft use
2+1/4 Cups / 525ml Vegetable Broth)
Garnish:
1/4 Cup / 10g Parsley
Ground black pepper to taste (I have added 1/2 teaspoon)
▶️ METHOD:
Wash the basmati rice thoroughly until water runs clear and then soak for 30 minutes. Remove the tofu from package, drain the water and dab it with a paper towel. Cut it into cubes and allow it to sit on a paper towel to drain any excess water.
To a heated pan add the oil. Add the tofu, salt and lightly fry one side for about 2 to 3 minutes on medium heat. Flip and fry the other side as well. Remove from the pan and set aside.
To the same pan add the onion, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and fry on medium-high heat until the onion starts to caramelize. Now reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped garlic, oregano, rosemary, thyme, cayenne pepper and fry for another one minute or until fragrant.
Add the strained tomatoes, mix well and fry until it forms a thick paste and the oil starts to separate. Drain the rice and transfer to the pot. Add salt, vegetable broth and mix well. Bring to a GENTLE/MILD SIMMER (please note we do NOT want to boiling the broth here).
As soon as the broth starts to simmer, cover the lid right away and reduce the heat to low.
Cook for about 20 minutes on VERY LOW HEAT, we are just trying to steam the rice here, so if the heat is higher then the rice at the bottom of the pan will burn. Once the rice is cooked, turn off the stove and remove the pot from heat. Add the fried tofu, parsley and mix very gently as the rice is fragile at this point and we don't want to break it. Cover and let it rest for 4 to 5 minutes before serving.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
- Thoroughly wash the rice until water runs clear, this will get rid of any impurities/gunk and will give a much better/clean taste
- This recipe uses White Basmati Rice, if you are using a different kind of rice adjust the water and cooking time accordingly
- Get rid of excess moisture by dabbing the tofu and allow it to sit on paper towel
- Make sure to fry the tofu lightly on both sides. DO NOT fry it for too long otherwise the tofu will turn rubbery (unless preferred)
- Adding salt to onion will release it's moisture and will help it cook/caramelize faster, so please don’t skip this step

I have vegan grandchildren and this recipe takes away the HUGE stress of figuring out what to cook for them. I've never cooked tofu before and this recipe makes it seem doable, I'll give it a try. Manh thanks.
thé key thing to know about tofu is the fact that it does not have any flavor and absorbs the one where you put it fish or meat or chicken or any spice .
I'm sure your grandchildren appreciate you trying new ways to cook for them. Your an amazing grandmother!
I can only recommend watching other videos from this channel. They have great, versatile ideas that are really easy to cook. I recently cooked a rice and lentil recipe they posted about 4 months ago and really enjoyed it.
So adorable that your grandchildren are vegan! 🌱 MashAllah! We live in a wrong society, whether it’s the practice or amazing cooking- it’s hard to be a vegetarian though I will be, but I always wish I were because it would be easier. Children should be in a correct environment - for example vegetarian or vegan lifestyle is perfect, thank you for creating that ambiance in their growing up time.
Hey, vegan grandchild here! The best thing to do for us is to make your regular dinner that you're use to making, plan on putting animal products in at the last minute and just remove some of the food for us before you do. That way you get to eat what makes you happy and so do we. It doesn't have to be any special creative vegan meal but they sound very lucky to have you trying new things just for them :)
@@toad_house_homestead username really doesn't check out😂
2 things I LOVE SO CRAZY about ur videos :
The short time that makes a video NOT boring,
& the simplicity of ur recipes that makes ur recipes look SO delicious !!!
Thank u from the BOTTOM of my heart - for being there on UA-cam plus using English
🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓
Thank you! 😊
The soft music in the background is so comforting 😀
Never tried Tofu in a rice _ now I am going to get adventurous as I am always looking for special veg preparations when I entertain. Very well done _ the soothing music adds to the beautiful Tofu Rice
I love this video so much because of the music. And I'm gonna prepare it tomorrow night.
I prepared. It's delicious.
So awesome to hear that! Glad you liked it 😊

Looks yummy I haven’t made it yet but that’s my next thing to do. Thank you I became vegan about a year ago. Thank you for posting easy to follow recipe I appreciate it.
I cooked it today, first time making tofu rice and I loved the rice taste. I didn't add the veg broth stock because I wanted to keep it more natural. If you like it spicy, you will need adding extra chili powder, it's very mild in the recipe. Great recipe ideia for vegan meals :)
Looks delicious
Absolutely beautiful as always! Looking forward to your next video ☺
Thank you! 😊

I have just learned to do alot with tofu after struggle to cook with it and I now I am seeing where people saying tofu isn't good and it messes with hormones, like what the heck can I eat then!
@@sheronshopz it is not true. Nothing wrong with tofu.
@@sheronshopz Not true, you need to eat a lot of tofu for it to affect your hormones
I have recently included tofu in my diet. Last week I made your Green Coconut Curry and it was so delicious! Today I made this recipe and absolutely love it! My husband said it was amazing, so this will be on our table often. Thank you for all your recipes. Each one is a delight!! 💖
Thank you for trying these recipes. So happy that you and your husband liked it 😊
Awesome.
Thank you! :)
I made this for me and my family and we all love it thank for the help will try out different recipes because we are vegan
So awesome to hear that! Glad you liked it 😊
This looks really lovely, thanks for such a calming clear video. 💆
I just wanted to ask, what is the reason for soaking the rice before cooking it? I usually wash it beforehand but haven't soaked it before so I was wondering what difference this makes to the end result? Thanks 🤗
It is 8 am I was watching this video. Good day to you. Looks delicious yummy. Thank you for sharing. I like tofu and rice and I have to buy some of those spices Enjoy your day yummy enjoy blessings 🙏
Good day to you too! 😊
Thanks for sharing your recipes! I am seriously thinking about becoming a Vegetarian or Vegan Eater! This is a very Healthy Lifestyle and I believe in my heart it will help me. Peace and Blessings to you.🤗❤
Since I became vegan 2 years ago I have cooked so many amazing recipes, with healthy tasty ingredients, I will never go back, good luck
Very interesting!🤗🌻🌻❤❤
😊
Beautiful and tasty; you're amaizing :)
Thank you so much Anita! 😊❤️
This looks delectable!!
I just received an air fryer from my hubby as a gift! I am going to make the tofu in there!!
This will be so yummy!! Thank you! 👌🙏🏻
Sounds good! 😊
my point too, just air fry for a healthier version; oil is not a food!
I have been using air fryer to fry tofu for the last 4 years since I got my air fryer.
This is Incredibly Nice!
I think if (hopefully when) I can make this, it would be nice to add peas, carrots, and broccoli just to make it more complete!
Or you could make a vegetable stir fry with mushrooms and add to it!
Lovely 😘
I must say, I started watching the video yesterday but stopped in few seconds as I thought it's just another recipe with various sauces but then I'm glad I watched it again today as it's different from others.
Especially the idea of using thyme, rosemary, parsley is what I liked as it works for me perfectly. This is going to be dinner tonight for me and surprise for a neighbour.
Thankyou 🙏🏽.
So glad you watched the video. Let me know how it goes :)
@@FoodImpromptu it came out well though I think I added pasata a bit more than required. Overall I'm glad to know that I can eat rice,tofu this way instead of cooking them separately in soy sauce etc. Thankyou 🙏🏽
I would like to take the time to thank You so much for uploading this simple though deliciously tasty meal. I've been vegetarian going on vegan for a good number of years now without dairy like eggs and fresh milk from about 14th September 2002. Am a good few stone overweight as have still been a big bread eater. I even screen shot the ingredients from underneath the video description and deliberately went out to buy most of those ingredients, the ones I never had here were I live, to make this dish just as has been demonstrated. It's Preparation day for me for The Bible Sabbath so this exact dish was made and the quarter I just ate has set my taste buds off to a place they have not been in a what seems a very long time or even never. GOD Bless You
Thank you! So happy to hear that, glad you like it 😊
I'm looking to eat more plant based food. I was shunning tofu for a while because of the health warnings and so forth. I figure it's like with Tuna and that you can eat a certain amount and it's okay. My biggest thing is the warnings that soy is a major GMO product but if I focus on getting non GMO and also organic if possible that should help. I like tofu so I'm going to start back on eating it more often. Thanks for the recipe idea.
Looks so yummy! Used to worry about soy due to my family's history of Cancer--really wish I'd realized sooner how soy has phytoestrogen and not actual estrogen like dairy. Thanks a lot for posting
I just discovered your channel today. My doctor suggested including some plant based recipes in my diet to aid in lowering my cholesterol. Yours look delicious, as well as simple and easy to follow. I have yet to see confusing items like coconut aminos or explaining this recipe is for alkaline vegans. I didn't realize there were different types of vegans. Your recipes will allow me the simplicities of vegan dining. Thank you!
Thanks! I would love to hear how it goes 😊
Yummy
I just discovered your channel, thank you for sharing your recipes. My husband and I are both vegan so I'll be looking for recipes that are free from animal-based ingredients. 🙏🏼 Thank you again.
Welcome to my channel and let me know how it goes :)
Good recipe
With a Ratatouille as vegetables so amazing
I made this with slight enhancements...came out pretty well..completely different from my usual cooking..
So glad you liked it 😊
personally i don't live vegan, but have lived 17 Years as a vegetarian, so many greetings from Brunswick in Germany and Happy Weekend :)
Greeting to you too and have a great weekend! :)
Amazing recipe! Does anyone happen to know what the piano piece is playing in the background? It's equally as gorgeous as the dish!
I made this yesterday and gave some to friends.
My husband and I had this for lunch,
It was easy and absolutely delicious. Keep recipes coming, please🙏❤️
So awesome to hear that! Glad you like it 😊
Amazing! What kind of pot do you use in the video? I made this and it turned out great but I don't think my wok was the ideal "one pot" to make this in. 🤔
I would devour this ❤
Nice Recipe. You can easily bake the tofu pieces on parchment paper so it does not stick,using no oil for the same texture and taste.
Hi, amazing recipe and video 😊✨️ I was wondering if I could use regular rice?
Sure you can. Just adjust the water quantity and cooking time accordingly :)
Hi, could you use brown basmati. It looks very tasty 😋
Genial arroz cruelty free
Hello! Where do you find your pots and pans?
A Tofu recipe without ginger being mentioned... praise be....or is it only me🤔 Heaps of thanks 💐💕
😀 most welcome!
