Small tips that make a difference

  • Press the tofu for at least 20 minutes before frying — that is the secret to crispness.
  • Make the peanut sauce ahead and loosen with hot water to the consistency you want.
  • Build the bowl in layers and add the sauce only just before eating.

Frequently asked questions

How much protein is in the bowl?
About 50g of protein per serving from the tofu and toppings — very filling for roughly 489 calories.
Can I prep it for lunchboxes?

Can I swap the tofu?
Seared chicken breast, salmon or just edamame all work well and change the bowl without hurting the macros.
