VEGAN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to package directions. This recipe works even better with leftover rice, so if you can, cook it the day before.
• If you use frozen peas and corn kernels, cook them according to package directions. If you use them canned, omit this step.
• Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet, add the garlic, onion, and carrots, and cook them over high heat for about 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the peas and corn kernels and cook for 2 more minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the rice, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir and cook for 2-3 more minutes or until the rice is hot, stirring frequently.
• Garnish with the green onions and serve your vegan fried rice immediately mixed with tofu scramble, air fryer tofu, baked tofu, or fried tofu.
• Keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

VEGAN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Cooking happens quickly, so it's helpful to have all of the ingredients prepared and ready to go. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the rice. Stirring occasionally, cook until the rice is toasted and has a lightly chewy texture, about 4 minutes. Transfer rice to a plate.
• Add 2 teaspoons oil to the pan. Cook the vegetables, excluding green onion, until lightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Create a hole in the center, and pour the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, and red pepper flakes directly onto the hot surface. Stir into the vegetables.
• If using ½ cup or less of JUST Egg, you should have enough room to scramble it by pushing the veggies to the side. If you would rather make an egg-heavy fried rice, transfer the veggies to a plate so that you'll have more room (JUST egg is very liquid and will spread). Add the vegan egg to the skillet/wok and cook for about 1 minute, tossing and scrambling.
• Mix the scrambled JUST Egg into the veggies. Return the rice to the pan, and add the green onion. Stir to incorporate. Taste and season with salt, pepper, or additional soy sauce, if desired. Serve immediately.

EASY VEGAN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or lightly grease with non-stick spray).
• In the meantime wrap tofu in a clean, absorbent towel and set something heavy on top (such as a cast iron skillet) to press out the liquid.
• Once the oven is preheated, dice tofu into 1/4-inch cubes and arrange on baking sheet. Bake for 26-30 minutes. You're looking for golden brown edges and a texture that's firm to the touch. The longer it bakes, the firmer and crispier it will become, so if you're looking for softer tofu remove from the oven around the 26-28 minute mark. I prefer crispy tofu, so I bake mine the full 30 minutes. Set aside.
• While the tofu bakes prepare your rice by bringing 12 cups of water to a boil in a large pot. Once boiling, add rinsed rice and stir. Boil on high uncovered for 30 minutes, then strain for 10 seconds and return to pot removed from the heat. Cover with a lid and let steam for 10 minutes*.
• While rice and tofu are cooking, prepare sauce by adding all ingredients to a medium-size mixing bowl and whisking to combine. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more tamari or soy sauce for saltiness, peanut butter for creaminess, brown sugar for sweetness, or chili garlic sauce for heat.
• Once the tofu is done baking, add directly to the sauce and marinate for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Heat a large metal or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once hot, use a slotted spoon to scoop the tofu into the pan leaving most of the sauce behind. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown on all sides (see photo). Lower heat if browning too quickly. Remove from pan and set aside.
• To the still hot pan add garlic, green onion, peas and carrots. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, and season with 1 Tbsp (15 ml) tamari or soy sauce (amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
• Add cooked rice, tofu, and remaining sauce and stir. Cook over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Serve immediately with extra chili garlic sauce or sriracha for heat (optional). Crushed salted, roasted peanuts or cashews make a lovely additional garnish. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, though best when fresh. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave.
