1 Tablespoon White vinegar or White wine vinegar (OR TO TASTE)
1+1/2 Teaspoon / 9g Minced garlic
1/2 Tablespoon Maple syrup
1 Tablespoon Sesame oil OR TO TASTE

👉 PAN FRIED TOFU:
200g Extra firm tofu - cut into 1/2 X 1/2 inch cubes (approx. 1+1/4 cup of chopped tofu)
1 to 2 Teaspoon Olive oil
1/8 Teaspoon Salt OR TO TASTE
1/4 Teaspoon Ground black pepper OR TO TASTE

▶️ METHOD:

Thoroughly wash the quinoa (a few times) until the water runs clear. then soak in water for about 30 minutes. Once the quinoa is soaked drain the water and let it sit in a strainer.

To a heated pan add olive oil and onion. Fry the chopped onion while switching between medium to medium-high heat until it starts to brown, for about 5 minutes or so. Adding the chopped mushrooms, salt and fry on medium-high heat until the mushrooms are lightly browned, for about 6 to 7 minutes.

Add the soaked and strained quinoa and water and mix. Sprinkle julienne carrots and frozen edamame on top of the quinoa. Mix and BRING IT TO A BOIL AND THEN COOK UNCOVERED FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE. COVER THE PAN WITH LID AND REDUCE THE HEAT TO LOW AND COOK IT COVERED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES OR UNTIL THE QUINOA IS COOKED.

👉 Sometimes one batch of quinoa is more dry than the other and May take longer to cook. So adjust the cooking time accordingly.

While the quinoa is cooking, prepare the sauce mix. To a small bowl add gochujang, dark soy sauce, white vinegar, maple syrup, minced garlic and sesame oil. Mix well until and set aside for later.

Once the quinoa is cooked. Uncover and add the sauce mix, the green onions and mix well. Then increase the heat to medium and fry the quinoa for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Now cover the lid. Remove the pan from heat and allow the quinoa to rest for about 5 minutes for the flavours to develop.

Remove the extra firm tofu from the package over the sink. Drain the liquid and rinse the tofu with water. Pat dry the tofu with paper towel. Use 200g of the tofu and cut it into 1/2X 1/2 inch cubes. To a heated pan, add the olive oil, tofu cubes, salt and pepper. Mix well. Spread out the tofu in a single and allow one side to golden brown for about 1 minute. Then toss and fry for another 2 to 3 minutes until all sides are lightly browned.

Add the pan fried tofu to the cooked quinoa and mix. Serve hot with a side of green salad.
