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

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Prepare the gochujang sauce by mixing gochujang with a splash of water for a smoother consistency.
  7. 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.
  8. For a crispy texture, serve in a heated stone bowl if available.
