Guest guest Posted March 29, 1999 Report Share Posted March 29, 1999 Note that the Gritty Rice is needed for the Veggie Rice Squares and the Gritty Rice Crust. Kathleen * Exported from MasterCook * Fried Rice Recipe By : http://soyfoods.com/SimplySoy 3/99 Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Soyfoods Rice Vegetables Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 tablespoons lime juice 1 tablespoon lower-sodium soy sauce 4 ounces firm tofu -- in small cubes 1/4 cup chopped carrots 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil Lime wedges -- (optional) 2 cloves garlic -- minced 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger 1/4 cup sliced snowpeas 1/4 cup sliced celery 2 green onions -- sliced 2 cups cooked rice Combine the lime juice and soy sauce and pour over the tofu. Set aside until needed. Blanch the carrots in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain well and set aside. (If carrots are cut in small matchsticks, you do not need to blanch them.) Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet and briefly saute the garlic and ginger. Add the tofu and marinade, carrots, snowpeas, celery and green onions. Cook, stirring, over high heat about 1 minute. Add the rice and continue to cook and stir until tofu is beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Serve with lime wedges to squeeze over the rice at the table, if desired.

Leftovers freeze well. Combine all ingredients in a medium pot. (Be sure it's large enough, as the soy grits foam a little.) Bring to a boil. Reduce heat as low as possible, cover tightly, and let cook for 45 minutes (20 minutes if using white rice). Do not lift the lid while the rice is cooking! Remove pan from heat. Allow to sit, covered, for 10 minutes before serving. *Most soy grits are small flakes. If you have large chunks, you will need to use brown rice and 2-3/4 cups water to be sure the grits cook completely.
