Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Rinse the sushi rice in a sieve under cold running water for 30 secs (use your hands to really wash the grains!), then set aside to drain fully
Add the drained rice with 200ml [400ml]cold water and a generous pinch of salt to a pot with a lid and bring to the boil over a high heat
Tip: Don't let the water fully boil as this will make the rice stick to the pot!
2
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low until very gently bubbling and cook, covered, for 15 min
After 15 min, remove the pot from the heat and keep covered for a further 10 min before serving – this is your sticky rice
Tip: Don't peek! Keep the lid on the whole time to get fluffy and sticky rice!
3
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ 395°F/ Gas 6
Meanwhile, peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic and ginger
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the chopped garlic and ginger and cook for 2-3 min or until fragrant
4
Once fragrant, add the soy sauce, mirin, Chinese rice wine, agave nectar and 1 tbsp [2 tbsp]sugar
Increase the heat to high andcook for 1-2 min further, stirring constantly, or until thickened
Once thickened, pour the sauce into a bowl and keep to one side – this is your teriyaki sauce
Tip: The sauce will thicken as it cools
Wipe the pan clean and set it aside for later
5
Add the Tenderstem broccoli to a baking tray, and put the tray in the oven for 10 min or until crisp and cooked through
Meanwhile, drain the tofu and cut into 6 [12] slices lengthways, and pat each one thoroughly dry with kitchen paper
Add the cornflour to a plate
Press each tofu slice into the cornflour firmly, until evenly coated all over
6
Return the reserved pan to a high heat with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil
Once the pan is hot, add the cornflour-coated tofu and cook for 3-4 min on each side or until browned and crispy
While the tofu is cooking, trim, then slice the spring onion[s] finely
7
Once the tofu is crispy, reduce heat to low and add 1 tbsp [2 tbsp]teriyaki sauce to the pan and stir to coat each piece of tofu – this is your crispy teriyaki tofu
Once the broccoli is cooked, add the toastedsesame oil and sesame seeds to the tray and give everything a good mix up – this is your sesame broccoli
