INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup white rice
  • 2 cups water
  •  
  • 3 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1 pound tofu, cubed
  • 1/2 white onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3/4 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

DIRECTIONS

  1. Bring rice and water to a boil in a pot. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes, or until rice is tender and water has been absorbed.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the tofu in the oil until browned, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion is translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Mix in the tomato paste and peanut butter; cook and stir until peanut butter has melted completely, about 5 minutes. Serve over cooked rice.

I made this the other night and the taste just didn't do it for me, the paste was overpowering and there wasn't enough flavour from the garlic, on the bright side me my brother and his wife did eat it all.
