When you’ve ever wished a masterclass in learn how to put collectively a excellent vegetarian salad, this crispy rice and tofu salad is it. It’s full of totally different textures (crispy rice towards juicy cucumbers – pleasant), totally different flavours (a creamy tahini dressing with soy sauce and a contact of honey – delectable), and attention-grabbing contrasts (spicy tofu vs. recent veggies – great!).

I can’t take full credit score for this crispy rice salad, as I’ve seen variations on this theme everywhere in the web for the previous few months – however this model is my very own, and I’m so glad I gave it a strive. Roasted rice might sound totally weird, however it works so effectively, and brings a beautiful crunch to this salad.

What’s Roasted Rice Like?
Roasting is a good way to make use of up leftover rice. It could sound weird, however if you reheat the rice within the oven, it turns into crispy and chewy, and if you happen to cook dinner it with chilli oil and soy sauce like I did, it’s significantly tasty.
I additionally added some crumbled tofu to the oven, which additionally crisps up properly, and soaks up all of the flavour to develop into actually tasty, chewy little nuggets.

Elements and Substitutions
Right here’s what you’ll have to make this crispy rice salad. See the printable recipe card beneath for detailed ingredient portions.

- leftover rice. When you don’t have any pre-cooked rice, you’ll be able to cook dinner it from recent, however it works higher with day-old rice.

- edamame (soya beans) – I used frozen.
- cucumber
- cashew nuts
- soy sauce
- chilli oil – the stuff I used is absolutely sizzling! When you’d favor your salad to be a bit much less spicy, use some common cooking oil rather than among the chilli oil.
- tahini (sesame seed paste) – use easy peanut butter if you happen to can’t get tahini.
- honey (or agave, for a vegan salad)
This recipe is absolutely only a leaping off level – there are all kinds of different elements you could possibly add, if you happen to like. Some examples:
- swap the cashews for sesame seeds or chopped peanuts

- serve all the things on a mattress of crunchy lettuce

Becca’s High Tip
This salad is finest eaten inside about 24 hours. When you go away it within the fridge for much longer, the rice and tofu lose their crispiness, and might start to style a bit ‘stale’.
