Method
- Rinse the jasmine rice until the water runs clear and cook it in plenty of boiling water for 12 minutes, until tender; drain and keep covered.
- Meanwhile bring a finger of water to the boil in a pot fitted with a steamer basket; quarter the pak choi lengthways and rinse it well at the base.
- Peel the ginger and cut it into very fine julienne, julienne the spring onions and pick the coriander leaves.
- Put the whole drained tofu in a shallow dish that fits in the basket, with the pak choi around it, and steam with the lid on for 8 minutes, until the tofu is hot in the centre and the pak choi is tender.
- Pour off the water released into the dish, scatter the tofu and pak choi with the ginger and spring onions and drizzle with the tamari.
- Heat the peanut oil in a small pan over high heat for 1–2 minutes, until it starts to smoke, and pour it straight over the ginger and spring onions, which will sizzle; finish with the sesame oil and coriander and serve with the rice.
