Moroccan Tofu Rice Bowl

Watch how to make here 

This tofu rice bowl is a quick, high-protein meal perfect for dinner during National Nutrition Month. With the help of Hodo Chermoula Moroccan Tofu Cubes, this meal can be made in less than 20 minutes.

 

Notes:

  1. Hodo Chermoula Moroccan Tofu Cubes can be found at most major retailers in the US (Whole Foods Market, Target, Publix, HEB, local Co-ops, etc). These Moroccan Cubes are pre-marinated for quick, easy, and accessible meals. The organic soybean oil allows you to snip open the package and add to your favorite skillet.
 
1. The tofu cubes and asparagus can be pan-fried instead of air fried. If pan frying, cook the tofu and asparagus in separate non-stick pans. The tofu should be cooked for 6-7 until golden and crispy. The asparagus can be cooked for 5-6 minutes until slightly soft.
2. To save even more time, precooked packaged white rice can be used. Otherwise, cook the white rice according to the package instructions.
3. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days

Cooking Instructions

1
Step 1
Begin prepping the asparagus by removing the woody part of the spears. You can perform this step by snapping off the bottom of each stalk or slicing them off with a knife. Rinse the asparagus under running water to get rid of any dirt. Pat the asparagus dry with a clean paper towel. Add the asparagus to an air fryer tray and coat it with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2
Open one packet of the Hodo Chermoula Moroccan Tofu Cubes. Transfer to an air fryer tray and coat it in olive oil. You might have to break the tofu pieces apart into bite-sized pieces using a fork. Air fry the asparagus and tofu for 8-10 minutes at 400F.

Step 3
Meanwhile, combine the scallion, garlic cloves, oil, and salt in a food processor to create a sauce. Alternatively, you can mince the scallion and garlic cloves with a knife. Heat up a small pan and add the sauce. Allow it to cook for 30-45 seconds before adding the cooked white rice. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the rice is slightly crispy. Transfer to a bowl.

Step 4
At this point, the tofu and asparagus should be cooked. The tofu will become golden and crispy. Add the juice of 1/4 of a lemon to the asparagus.

Step 5
In the bowl with the rice, add the tofu and asparagus. Serve with nori, chili oil, and any remaining scallion pieces. Enjoy!
