  1. FLUFFY RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover 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. EDAMAME

    Boil the kettle. Submerge the edamame beans in salted boiling water until plumped up, 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  3. FRY THE VEGGIES

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onions and the carrot pieces until the onions are soft, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the baby marrow pieces and fry until turning golden, 4-5 minutes. Add the grated garlic and the chilli flakes (to taste), and fry until fragrant. Mix in the fluffy rice and the oriental sauce. Remove from the heat and season.

  4. STICKY TOFU

    Place a pan over medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. Coat the sliced tofu in the cornflour and season. When hot, fry the tofu until golden and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the heat, drain the oil from the pan, and baste with the plum sauce.

  5. DINNER IS READY

    Make a bed of the loaded rice, top with the sticky tofu, and scatter over the plumped edamame beans. Garnish with the chopped coriander. Good job, Chef!
