Main Ingredients
- Chicken breast 100g
- Tofu 1/4 block
- Warm cooked rice 1 bowl
- Chives 5 stalks
- Bell pepper 1/10 piece
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the chives thoroughly, pat them dry, and finely chop them into about 0.5cm pieces. Chopping them this way helps to release their aroma when stir-frying.
Step 2
Remove the seeds from the bell pepper and dice it into small, bite-sized cubes of about 0.5cm. This size ensures a pleasant texture and makes the fried rice visually appealing.
Step 3
Prepare the tofu for mashing. Use the back of a knife (the dull side) to gently mash the tofu until it’s crumbly but not completely smooth. Small lumps are perfectly fine.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the mashed tofu and stir-fry to remove excess moisture. This step is crucial for preventing a soggy fried rice. Keep stirring to prevent sticking and burning.
Step 5
Once most of the moisture has evaporated from the tofu, add a little olive oil to one side of the pan. Add the diced bell pepper first and stir-fry until fragrant and slightly tender. Then, add the chopped chives and stir-fry briefly to maintain their crispness. Be careful not to overcook the vegetables.
Step 6
Shred or finely chop the pre-cooked chicken breast. Chopping it into small pieces will ensure it mixes evenly throughout the fried rice without clumping.
Step 7
Add the chopped chicken breast and warm cooked rice to the pan with the sautéed vegetables and tofu. Use a spatula to gently break up any clumps of rice and mix everything together.
Step 8
Now, it’s time to add the flavor! Stir in the curry powder and oyster sauce. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the fried rice. The aromatic curry and savory oyster sauce create a delicious combination.
Step 9
Once everything is well combined, season with a pinch of black pepper to taste. Continue to stir-fry until everything is heated through and the flavors have melded together. Your delicious Tofu Chicken Breast Curry Fried Rice is ready! Enjoy this hearty and healthy meal.
