Instructions

Press the tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cube it, season, and roast over medium-high heat until well browned, about 6 minutes.

Add the carrots, shiitake mushrooms and ginger, cooking until softened, about 4 minutes.

Stir in the sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, five spice and rice vinegar for a final minute.

Cook the sticky rice separately and fluff with a fork.

Let the tofu simmer for about 11 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the sticky rice, garnished with fresh herbs.
