Ingredients
- Cauliflower - 300 grams
- Firm tofu - 200 grams
- Spinach - 100 grams
- Carrot - 1 medium (about 70 grams)
- Zucchini - 1 medium (about 200 grams)
- Gochujang (Korean chili paste) - 2 tablespoons
- Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
- Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
- Garlic - 2 cloves
- Vegetable oil - 2 tablespoons
- Salt - to taste
- Black sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon
- Green onions - 2 stalks
Steps
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Cut the cauliflower into small florets and pulse it in a food processor until it resembles rice. Spread it on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden.
- While the cauliflower is roasting, press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into cubes. In a pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat and sauté the tofu until golden brown on all sides. Add soy sauce and sesame oil, cooking for an additional 2 minutes.
- In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil and sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Next, julienne the carrot and zucchini. In the same pan, add the carrots and zucchini, cooking for about 5 minutes until slightly softened. Season with salt to taste.
- Prepare the gochujang sauce by mixing gochujang with a splash of water for a smoother consistency.
- To assemble, place the roasted cauliflower rice in a bowl, and top with the sautéed spinach, carrots, zucchini, and tofu. Drizzle with gochujang sauce and a sprinkle of black sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
- For a crispy texture, serve in a heated stone bowl if available.
