INSTRUCTIONS

1
Cook the rice

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Add rice, 1 cup water, and a pinch of salt to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until grains are tender and water is absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 2 cups water).

2
Prepare the orange sauce

Add garlic, orange juice, tamari, sugar, and Sriracha to a medium bowl. Whisk the orange sauce.

3
Roast the green beans

Add green beans, 1 tsp vegetable oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a baking sheet and toss to coat. Roast until tender and browned in places, 6 to 8 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 2 tsp vegetable oil).

4
Crisp the tofu

Add tofu, cornstarch, just 2 tsp sesame seeds, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a large bowl and toss to coat. Heat sesame oil and 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add coated tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy and browned in places, 5 to 8 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 4 tsp sesame seeds, 2 tbsp vegetable oil). TIP: Work in batches for the 4-serving meal.

5
Add the sauce

Add scallion and cook until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add the orange sauce. Toss to coat and cook until sauce thickens, about 30 seconds. TIP: For the 4-serving meal, add all the tofu back to the pan before adding the scallion and sauce.

6
Serve

Divide the sticky rice and roasted green beans between large plates and top with sesame orange tofu. Sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds and serve with orange wedges. 好吃!
