If you’ve never tried tofu I dare you! This salad is just gorgeous especially in summer.
Tofu with a crispy golden outer, soft inside and it soaks up any flavour.

Ingredients
Crispy Tofu:
1 block Organic firm Tofu@tonzu.nz
2 TBS Tapioca starch
1 tsp paprika
2 tsp sesame seed oil
1 TBS Tamari or soy
2 tsp maple syrup
2 tsp bone broth powder (optional)@nutraorganics
1 small knob ginger finely grated
Black pepper
Black Rice
Water
Salad:
Red cabbage finely sliced approx 1/4 cabbage
1/2 Zuchinni Ribboned

And fresh chopped herbs - Mint, coriander & flat leaf parsley.
Peanut Dressing
3 tablespoons peanut butter
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon cider/rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 tablespoons sesame oil
Pinch of sea salt
Preparation
Dry tofu block with a paper towel.
Chop Tofu and dust with the dry ingredients , stir then pour in the wet ingredients.
Gently fry In olive oil until golden and crispy all over.
Then get your black rice cooking. I used @ceresorganics
Black rice - ( I soaked this overnight in water - this optional but makes for a fluffier rice & reduces cooking time )
Cook as per packet instructions.
I added @nutraorganics bone broth powder too to add more goodness. ( This is optional or you could sub for vegetable broth )
While your rice I prepared the Salad.
( I used whatever I had in the fridge & they all had crunch )
Toss everything together in a bowl.
You can also add fresh chopped herbs - Mint, coriander & flat leaf parsley. Now time to make the peanut dressing.
Mix all the ingredients in a small bowl or jar and whisk with a fork until all combined.
