This allergy-friendly, vegetarian recipe is full of fibre, flavour and firm tofu. It's also light but satisfying, for those watching their weight.
1 Cut tofu into 1cm-thick slices. Place cornflour on a large plate. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss tofu slices in cornflour to lightly coat.
2 Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add tofu and cook, turning once, for 5 minutes or until golden.
3 Meanwhile, steam, boil or microwave green beans until tender. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Drain again.
4 Place half the sushi seasoning in a large bowl. Add carrot, bean sprouts, cucumber and cooked beans, tossing well to combine. Set aside for 2 minutes or until pickled. Place tamari, remaining sushi seasoning and half the chilli in a small bowl, mixing well to combine.
5 Divide rice among four serving bowls. Top with pickled vegetables and salt and pepper tofu. Sprinkle with spring onions and remaining chilli. Serve drizzled with tamari dressing.
Firm tofu has a lower water content than soft or silken tofu, so holds its shape well when cooked. Find it in the refrigerator aisle of supermarkets.
