This low FODMAP Buddha bowl is on high rotation in our household. You can add any extras to your bowl but these are our favourites; steamed broccoli + carrot + green beans and kale salad.

Ingredients

For the tofu:

  • 1 block (350g) extra-firm tofu, drained and pressed, cubed

  • red pepper flakes, to taste (optional)
  • 3 tsbp coconut oil (or other cooking oil)
Instructions
  1. To make the tofu: add the tofu to a medium bowl with the rice flour. Toss well to coat, and shake off excess.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the tofu cubes until all sides are browned. About 4 minutes each side. Drain tofu on paper towel to get rid of excess oil.
  3. To make the maple soy glaze: in a small pot, add all sauce ingredients and whisk to combine.
  4. Cook over medium-high heat for 30 seconds to 1 minute, whisking constantly, until the sauce starts to thicken. Remove from heat, 
  5. Toss the sauce with the tofu and serve over a bed of rice.
