Number of Servings: 2

Ingredients

    1/2 head cauliflower (or about 2 cups rice)

    1 cup kimchi

    1/4 cup kimchi juice

    1/2 tbsp vegan butter (important, don’t skip it)

    1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

    1/2 block tofu, cubed

    sea salt (for tofu)

    nori flakes (for garnish)

    toasted sesame seeds (garnish)

    chopped green onions (garnish)

Tips

*Kimchi traditionally is made by the matriarch of a large Korean family, but if you don’t fit that profile and still want to make your own kimchi, of course go for it! :D http://www.peacefuldumpling.com/vegan-korean-recipes-cauliflower-kimchi-fried-rice


Directions

1. Chop cauliflower into chunks and pulse in a blender or food processor (about 6-8 quick pulses) until they turn into “rice.”

2. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add EVOO. When the oil is hot, add tofu cubes and leave them alone for about 4 minutes. Seriously, just go do something and come back. This is how you get a nice golden crust. Check a few pieces to see the color, and then flip them over onto the other side, and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle with sea salt. Set aside.

3. In the same pan, add vegan butter. Over medium heat, add kimchi and kimchi juice, and cook for about 3-4 minutes, lightly stirring. Add cauliflower rice and stir to combine. Cook for another 5 or so minutes, until cauliflower is completely cooked.

4. To serve, top rice with tofu cubes. Garnish the fried rice with nori flakes, sesame seeds, and green onions, and serve.
