Nasi Goreng Kampung with 'Just Egg' Tofu Scramble
Malaysian fried rice, traditionally cooked 'kampung' style, served with a tofu scramble seasoned to mimic the flavor and texture of scrambled eggs, using firm tofu and seasonings.
Ingredients
- 4 cups Cooked Rice
- 1 block Firm Tofu
- 0.5 teaspoon Black Salt (Kala Namak)
- 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dark Soy Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 medium Shallots
- 1 tablespoon Chili Paste
- 0.25 cup Green Onions
Instructions
- 1Place the 1 block of firm tofu on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Cover with another towel and press down firmly for at least 5 minutes to remove as much water as possible. Once pressed, crumble the tofu into a medium bowl. Add the 0.5 teaspoon of black salt to the crumbled tofu and mix gently to combine.
- 2Prepare your aromatics: Peel and finely mince the 3 cloves of garlic. Peel and thinly slice the 2 medium shallots.
- 3Place a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C). Add the 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the minced garlic and sliced shallots. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until they are fragrant and the shallots begin to soften.
- 4Add the crumbled tofu mixture to the wok. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is lightly browned and slightly crispy in places.
- 5Add the 4 cups of cooked rice to the wok. Pour in the 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and the 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce. Add the 1 tablespoon of chili paste. Stir everything together vigorously for 3-5 minutes, ensuring the rice and tofu are evenly coated and the mixture is heated through. The rice should be separated and slightly toasted.
- 6Turn off the heat. Stir in the 0.25 cup of green onions. Serve immediately.
