Tofu Nasi Goreng
with pak choi and bell pepper
The name 'nasi goreng' actually means fried rice in both Indonesian and Malay. It's a Southeast Asian favourite that's actually one of Indonesia's national dishes. It's a meal that involves rice, an egg, and an array of other optional elements. This veggie version utilizes crispy tofu as its shining star.

Instructions
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the rice.
- Add the rice and cook for 12-15 mins.
- Drain in a sieve and rinse with cold water until cooled then set aside.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Drain the tofu and chop into 2cm cubes. Pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the tofu until slightly crispy, 7-10 mins.
- Turn frequently to ensure it doesn't burn.
- Remove from the pan, season with salt and pepper and cover to keep warm.
3
- Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice the scallion.
- Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
- Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Halve the chilli lengthways and discard the core and seeds. Finely chop.
- Trim the pak choi, then thinly slice widthways.
4
- Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Fry the onion and bell pepper until charred, 4-6 mins. Add the Thai spice mix and fry for 1 min more.
- Stir in the ketjap manis and passata. Simmer for 2-3 mins.
- Add the drained rice, tofu, pak choi, chilli (use less if you don't like spice) and half the scallion to the pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Remove from the heat and keep covered.
5
- Place another pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, crack in your egg (1 per person) and cook for 4-5 mins, or until the egg white is cooked and the yolk is the firmness you desire. Lower the heat as needed.
- Cut the lime into quarters.
6
- Divide the nasi goreng between bowls.
- Serve topped with the remaining scallion and, optionally, your fried egg.
- Finish with a squeeze of lime juice.
