Ingredients

1 package (400g)	organic extra-firm tofu
285 g	brown rice
540 ml	filtered water
1 tsp	avocado oil
360 g	broccoli florets
270 g	asparagus, sliced
120 g	carrots, peeled and julienned
150 g	purple cabbage, thinly sliced
	Black pepper to taste
	Sauce
1 tbsp.	avocado oil
3 tbsp.	honey
6 tbsp.	organic Tamari or soy sauce
3 tbsp.	rice vinegar
3 tbsp.	water
1½	pieces of ginger, peeled and grated
3	garlic cloves, grated or crushed
¼ tsp.	dried red pepper flakes
Optional garnishes	green onions, sesame seeds, dried red pepper flakes

Step 1
Drain water from tofu and set on a kitchen towel. Wrap in towel and press slightly. Move tofu to a fresh dry towel, wrap and set aside.
Step 2
Add 540 milliliters of water to a medium saucepan. Turn to high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add 285 grams of brown rice and cover with a tightly fitting lid. Turn the heat to low and let cook for 25 minutes or until all water is absorbed. Do not lift the lid during cooking. When done, remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes (with the lid on). Fluff with a fork.
Step 3
To slice tofu, cut it lengthwise twice (to make three rows), then slice approximately 6 mm thick. Heat a large frying pan to medium-high heat. Once heated, add 2 teaspoons oil. Add tofu, adding a bit of black pepper, and brown on each side for 3-4 minutes or until golden. Do not let the tofu touch in the pan or it will stick together. If needed, cook tofu in two batches, adding an additional teaspoon of oil if needed. Move tofu to a plate.
Step 4
While the tofu is cooking add the sauce ingredients to a jar and shake to combine. Set aside.
Step 5
Using the same pan, reduce heat to medium, add the broccoli, asparagus and 1/3 of the sauce. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring frequently
Step 6
Add the carrots and purple cabbage. Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Step 7
Add tofu and 1/3 of sauce, stir to combine. Sauté for 2 mins.
Step 8
Add remaining sauce and remove from heat. Stir to combine.
Step 9
Store leftovers in a glass container with lid. Leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.
