Інгрэдыенты (for one large bowl)

зубчык часныку, фарш

75 мл (3 вадкіх унцый) лебяды

a few brussels sprouts, trimmed and washed

Метад

Rinse the rice and put in a small lidded saucepan with 300ml (10 і 1/2 вадкіх унцый) of cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, put the lid on and simmer on a low heat for 15 пратакол

Пасля 15 minutes top with the quinoa and brussels sprouts, паставіць крышку на месца і рыхтаваць яшчэ 10 minutes before topping with the peas and cooking for a further 5 (30 minutes from start to finish)

У той жа час (during the second 15 пратакол) heat some vegetable oil in a frying pan on a medium high heat. Mix together the cornflour, turmeric, white pepper and salt in a bowl and roll the tofu cubes so they are throughly coated. Fry them on all sides until crisp and brown

Turn the rice, quinoa and sprouts into a bowl and top with the avocado, лук, lettuce, red cabbage and tofu

Drizzle over the toasted sesame oil, the lime juice, the soy sauce and season with salt and black pepper

Sprinkle over the black sesame seeds if using and drizzle over the hot sauce
