1/2 Teaspoon Salt OR TO TASTE
190g / 1 cup Quinoa (soaked / strained)
1+1/2 cup / 350ml Water
3/4 cup / 120g Frozen (shelled) Edamame
1 cup / 100g Carrots – Julienne
3/4 cup / 45g Green onions – chopped
👉 Sauce mix:
1+1/2 Tablespoon / 33g Gochujang (fermented Korean pepper paste)
1 Tablespoon DARK Soy Sauce OR TO TASTE
1 Tablespoon White vinegar or White wine vinegar (OR TO TASTE)
1+1/2 Teaspoon / 9g Minced garlic
1/2 Tablespoon Maple syrup
1 Tablespoon Sesame oil OR TO TASTE
👉 PAN FRIED TOFU:
200g Extra firm tofu – cut into 1/2 X 1/2 inch cubes (approx. 1+1/4 cup of chopped tofu)
1 to 2 Teaspoon Olive oil
1/8 Teaspoon Salt OR TO TASTE
1/4 Teaspoon Ground black pepper OR TO TASTE
▶️ METHOD:
Thoroughly wash the quinoa (a few times) until the water runs clear. then soak in water for about 30 minutes. Once the quinoa is soaked drain the water and let it sit in a strainer.
To a heated pan add olive oil and onion. Fry the chopped onion while switching between medium to medium-high heat until it starts to brown, for about 5 minutes or so. Adding the chopped mushrooms, salt and fry on medium-high heat until the mushrooms are lightly browned, for about 6 to 7 minutes.
Add the soaked and strained quinoa and water and mix. Sprinkle julienne carrots and frozen edamame on top of the quinoa. Mix and BRING IT TO A BOIL AND THEN COOK UNCOVERED FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE. COVER THE PAN WITH LID AND REDUCE THE HEAT TO LOW AND COOK IT COVERED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES OR UNTIL THE QUINOA IS COOKED.
👉 Sometimes one batch of quinoa is more dry than the other and May take longer to cook. So adjust the cooking time accordingly.
While the quinoa is cooking, prepare the sauce mix. To a small bowl add gochujang, dark soy sauce, white vinegar, maple syrup, minced garlic and sesame oil. Mix well until and set aside for later.
Once the quinoa is cooked. Uncover and add the sauce mix, the green onions and mix well. Then increase the heat to medium and fry the quinoa for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Now cover the lid. Remove the pan from heat and allow the quinoa to rest for about 5 minutes for the flavours to develop.
Remove the extra firm tofu from the package over the sink. Drain the liquid and rinse the tofu with water. Pat dry the tofu with paper towel. Use 200g of the tofu and cut it into 1/2X 1/2 inch cubes. To a heated pan, add the olive oil, tofu cubes, salt and pepper. Mix well. Spread out the tofu in a single and allow one side to golden brown for about 1 minute. Then toss and fry for another 2 to 3 minutes until all sides are lightly browned.
Add the pan fried tofu to the cooked quinoa and mix. Serve hot with a side of green salad.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
👉 Thoroughly wash the quinoa, this will get rid of any impurities/gunk/bitterness and will give a cleaner taste to the quinoa
👉 Adding salt to mushrooms will release it’s moisture and will help it cook faster so please don’t skip it
👉 Sometimes one batch of quinoa is more dry than the other and may take longer to cook. So adjust the cooking time accordingly
👉 You can add substitute the tofu with any protein of your choice

Chopped salad: Get the veggie chopper here https://amzn.to/3AZKgIH
Here’s how I make this salad:
– Cucumber
– Carrots
– Tomato
– Any lettuce
– Rice (I use about 1 cup)
– Chickpeas (I use about 1/2 cup)
– Everything but the bagel seasoning
– My Healthy Vegan Mama dressing (2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, 1-2 tbsp tahini, a capful of apple cider vinegar. Today I also added a little sriracha and about 2 tbsp of nutritional yeast. Use water to thin it out).
✨Lastly, the key “ingredient” here is the FULLSTAR chopper. Get it here – https://amzn.to/3AZKgIH
Peas, broccoli, tofu and rice:
How to make: To a pot add…
– 2 cups of cooked or frozen rice (You can do uncooked; just use more veggie broth and longer cooking time).
– Lots of veggies. I did: 1 cup chopped broccoli, 2 cups peas
– 1 block of tofu
– Low-sodium soy sauce for flavor. I used about 4 tbsp. This will depend on how many veggies are in there. Start small and add more as needed.
– Sprinkle with garlic and onion powder (to taste)
– Let simmer in a bit of veggie broth (about 1/2 cup), until everything is married together and the sauce is thick.
– Drizzle with tahini and serve.
