Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. yellow miso
- 1 tbsp. tomato paste
- 1 tsp. chile-garlic paste
- 1/4 lb. firm tofu
- 1 1/2 tbsp. vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 lb. snow peas
- 1 carrot
- 1 large scallion
- 1/2 c. bean sprouts
- 1 1/2 c. sushi rice
- 2 c. water
- 2 tbsp. Toasted sesame seeds
- Seasoned or plain nori (Japanese seaweed)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the miso, tomato paste, chile-garlic paste and a pinch of salt; add the tofu and toss to coat.
- Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook over high heat until the whites are lightly browned around the edges and the yolks are barely set, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a plate.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet and heat until shimmering. Add the snow peas, carrot and scallion, season with salt and stir-fry over high heat until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the bean sprouts and cook for 30 seconds. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl, cover and keep warm.
- Add the rice and water to the skillet along with a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cover with foil and a tight-fitting lid and simmer over low heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Spoon the tofu and sauce over the rice, cover and cook for 5 minutes longer. Stir in the vegetables and top with the eggs and sesame seeds. Mix everything together and serve with seasoned nori and chile-garlic paste.
