We all love a poke bowl, and this one’s perfectly light for a summer evening! All the nutrients from brown basmati rice, red cabbage, and carrot; all the crispiness from pan-fried tofu; all the flavour from wasabi, tamari, and pickled ginger.

  1. RICE IS NICE!

    Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 300ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 20-25 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. Drain on completion if necessary. Pour in the rice wine vinegar and fluff with a fork. Replace the lid and set aside to keep warm

  2. SAUCES & SEEDS

    Combine the tamari with 1 tsp of a sweetener of choice and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the Mayo with the wasabi powder to taste. Add water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency and set aside for serving. Place the sesame seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting regularly. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.

  3. CHAR THE VEG

    When the rice reaches the halfway mark, return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, char the white spring onion slices with a pinch of salt for 1-2 minutes, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside. Return the pan to a high heat with another drizzle of oil if necessary. When very hot, sauté the cabbage and Carrot for about a minute until slightly wilted but still crunchy. Toss through a quarter of the tamari, remove from the pan, and set aside.

  4. GOLDEN Tofu

    Pat the Tofu cubes with some paper towel until dry all over. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the tofu for 4-5 minutes until crispy on all sides, shifting as it colours. Remove from the pan on completion, allow to drain on some paper towel, and season well.

  5. THE VEGAN POKE BOWL

    Dish up some basmati rice, stir-fried cabbage and Carrot, and charred spring onion. Place the crispy tofu alongside, drizzle over the wasabi mayo to taste, and pour over the remaining tamari. Garnish with the green spring onion slices, the chopped pickled ginger, and the nori strips (to taste). Finish with a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. Yes please!
