👨🍳 Step-by-step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare Tofu
Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into cubes.
Step 2: Cook Tofu
In a pan, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add tofu cubes and cook until golden and crispy on all sides (about 5–7 minutes). Add 1 tbsp of soy sauce to the tofu, stirring to coat.
Step 3: Cook the Eggs
In a separate pan, heat a little oil and fry the eggs sunny-side-up or scrambled, depending on your preference.
Step 4: Assemble the Bowl
Spoon the cooked rice into bowls. Top with the sautéed tofu, fried eggs, and sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the top. Drizzle the remaining soy sauce on the bowl.
Step 5: Serve
Serve immediately and enjoy!
💡 Tips
- You can add a side of sautéed spinach or steamed vegetables for extra flavor and nutrition.
- For a spicy kick, drizzle with sriracha sauce or add chili flakes.
- Use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free version.
- If you like a richer flavor, you can use coconut oil instead of sesame oil.
