How to make Peri Peri Rice Bowl

  1. For the baked tofu, start by slicing the tofu block into 1-inch cubes.

  2. Place the cubes on a clean tea towel and then cover with a second towel. Add a heavy pan or weight on top and allow to sit for 15 minutes in order to help press out as much moisture as possible.

  3. Preheat the oven to 400º F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper

  4. Put the pressed cubes into a large bowl and add the olive oil and soy sauce then mix to coat.

  5. Sprinkle the cornstarch and peanut butter powder over the cubes and toss to coat.

  6. Transfer the coated cubes to the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through the bake time.

  7. To assemble the bowl, divide the rice and spoon into 4 bowls.

  8. Top with 2 tablespoons of hummus, 1/4 cup of arugula, 2 tablespoons of roasted red pepper and the grilled corn.

  9. Add the crispy tofu and drizzle with peri peri sauce, if desired. Serve and Enjoy!
