  1. READY YOUR RICE

    Rinse the rice and place in a pot. Submerge in 200ml of salted water. Pop on a lid and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes.

  2. TOASTED SESAME SEEDS

    Place the sesame seeds in a pan or wok over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan or wok on completion and set aside to cool.

  3. TANGY SHIMEJIS

    Trim a thin slice off the base of the shimeji mushrooms and discard. Separate the mushroom stalks from one another. Return the pan or wok to a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the shimejis for 1-2 minutes until golden-brown, shifting occasionally. Stir in the Ka-Pow Sauce, the pickled ginger liquid, and 15ml of water. Bring to a simmer and cook for about a minute. Remove from the pan or wok on completion and place in a bowl. Cover to keep warm and set aside.

  4. A LITTLE MORE PREP

    In a bowl, combine the vegan mayo with half of the diced pickled ginger to taste. Set aside for serving. Using a fork, roughly mash the Tofu until it resembles the texture of scrambled egg. Once the rice has almost finished steaming, drain the shimejis, reserving the Ka-Pow liquid for the fried rice.

  5. GET WOKKING

    Return the pan or wok to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mashed Tofu for 3-4 minutes until it begins to crisp and turn gold, shifting continuously. Add the Oriental Rub and the sliced spring onion whites and fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add in the cooked rice and edamame beans and toss to blend the ingredients together. Stir through the sweet chilli sauce to taste, the remaining pickled ginger, and the Ka-Pow liquid (reserved from the shimejis). Remove the pan from the heat on completion.

  6. TIME TO MUNCH!

    Serve up a bowl of Ka-Pow Tofu fried rice. Scatter with the pickled shimejis, toasted sesame seeds, and fresh, sliced spring onion greens. Serve with a hearty dollop of pickled ginger mayo. Dig in!
