Free What you need:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 280g plain extra-firm tofu, cut into large chunks What you do:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. Put the tofu in a shallow bowl and sprinkle over the Chinese five-spice. Crush the garlic and mix with the ginger and soy sauce\/tamari, then pour over the tofu. Leave to marinate for 30 minutes, or chill for 6-8 hours if you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Cook the rice according to the pack instructions, then drain. Meanwhile, heat a large, non-stick wok or frying pan over a high heat. Lift the tofu out of the marinade, reserving the marinade for later, and dry-fry for 2 minutes on each side until beginning to char. Carefully transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Add the reserved marinade to the wok or pan with the asparagus, peppers, onions, mushrooms and carrots. Bring the marinade to the boil and cook for 3-5 minutes until most of it has evaporated, tossing the veg continuously. Stir through the coriander. Serve with the tofu and rice, and a sprinkling of chilli.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pack Veganuary with vibrant flavours!
