Werkwijze
  1. Start by steaming your broccoli.
  2. In the meanwhile mix the soy sauce, mirin, garlic, honey, sugar, lime juice and ginger.
  3. Get the tofu out of its package and cover the tofu with a clean kitchen towel (or some paper) and put something heavy on the tofu (I use a plate) and let it drain for about 10 minutes. Then cut the tofu into small cubes of approx. 1 cm.
  4. Cover the tofu pieces with corn starch so that every side has a little layer of corn starch.
  5. Heat the sesame oil in a large frying pan and fry the tofu for about 2 minutes on every side until golden and crisp.
  6. Add the broccoli and the sauce mixture and cover and let this simmer for about 5 minutes on low heat .
  7. Put the hot steamed rice in a bowl and top this off with the broccoli/tofu mixture.
  8. Finish of with scallions and maybe some sesame seeds of you like.
  9. I always serve this with some extra limes.
  10. Enjoy!
