  1. BOIL, SIMMER, STEAM

    Place the rice in a pot with 200ml [400ml]|#7DA0D7 of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

  2. SESAME SEEDS

    Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. TASTY TOFU

    Drain the tofu and cut into 1cm chunks. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Fry the tofu until golden and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and season.

  4. CHINESE CUISINE

    In a small bowl, combine the Cornflour with 100ml [200ml]|#7DA0D7 of warm water and mix well. Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Fry the baby marrow and the edamame beans until charred, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the pan and season. Place the pan back on medium heat. Fry the Chinese 5-spice, the spring onion whites, the ginger and the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the Chinese sauce and the cornflour water. Simmer until thickened and sticky, 3-4 minutes. Loosen with boiling water if it’s too thick.

  5. FINISHING TOUCHES
