  • Tofu Poke Bowl Recipe

Poke bowls hail from Hawaii but have become a popular dish all around the world, it literally translates to ‘diced fish salad’ but I have made a vegetarian version with tofu.

This recipe is super easy, it’s basically marinating the tofu and assembling using whatever you have in season. I love this combo of creamy avo, sweet mango and nutty brown rice, dressed with sriracha mayo to give you a kick.

Serving Size: x2

Ingredients:

  • 300g organic firm tofu
  • 1 cup shelled edamame beans
  • 1 cup cooked rice (I used brown sushi rice but any rice will work)
  • 1 grated carrot
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 1 ripe mango
  • 1 avocado
  • coriander
  • black sesame seeds (or any other nut to give you that crunch)
  • sriracha mayo

Method:

  • Heat the oven to bake 180. 
  • Make the tofu marinade and set aside. 
  • Cut tofu into cubes and cover with the marinate, for best results set aside for 30 mins. Otherwise pour your marinade over the tofu on a lined baking tray and cook for 25 mins or until a little crispy on the outside. 
  • Meanwhile, cook your rice and chop the rest of your ingredients.
  • Assemble in two bowls, starting with your rice and tofu.
  • Garnish with coriander.
