Prepare to embark on a flavor-packed adventure with our delectable Crispy Teriyaki Tofu and Avocado Rice Stack. This plant-based masterpiece combines the irresistible crunch of crispy tofu, the sweet and savory notes of homemade teriyaki sauce, and the creamy richness of avocado – all nestled atop a bed of fluffy brown rice.
1. 1. In a medium saucepan, combine the brown rice, vegetable broth, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 40-45 minutes until tender.
2. 2. In a large bowl, toss the pressed and cubed tofu with cornstarch, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
3. 3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add coated tofu cubes and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
4. 4. In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
5. 5. To assemble the stack, layer cooked brown rice in a bowl or plate. Top with crispy tofu, drizzle with teriyaki sauce, and arrange sliced avocado on top.
This dish is suitable for vegan and gluten-free diets with easy substitutions for soy sauce.
