INSTRUCTIONS

1
Cook the rice

Add sushi rice, 1¼ cups water, and a pinch of salt to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until the grains are tender and water is absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from heat and keep covered to steam until step 6.

2
Mix the almond butter sauce

Add garlic, ginger, almond butter, tamari, turbinado sugar, sesame oil, just half the chile garlic sauce, and 2 tbsp warm water to a medium bowl and whisk the almond butter sauce until smooth. TIP: Add more chile garlic sauce if you prefer more spice.

3
Char the vegetables

Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over high heat. Add carrot and cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chard leaves and stems and cook until wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and transfer to a plate.

4
Crisp the tofu

Return the skillet to medium-high heat with 1 tbsp vegetable oil. Add tofu and cook until crispy in places, 4 to 6 minutes. Add almond butter sauce and cook until crispy and browned in places, 2 to 3 minutes. TIP: If necessary, crisp the tofu in batches. Return all of the crisped tofu to the pan before adding the almond butter sauce.

5
Serve

Divide the rice, almond butter tofu, and rainbow chard and carrots between bowls. Top with radish and any remaining chile garlic sauce. Tuck in!
