Brown Rice with Tofu, Scallions, Ginger and Black Bean Sauce!
Posted by Shelly Perry (02/06/2011 @ 2:06 am)
After a long Saturday spent writing; cooped up in the house on a snowy afternoon I just needed something fresh, spicy and satisfying.
Brown rice with tofu and black bean sauce was the ticket.
Ginger and scallions added the fresh crunchy spicy thing.
Make sure to sautee the ginger or add it while the rice is boiling.
Too raw and it can be intense!
I added alot of crushed red pepper.
I love the heat!

My friend Mark is great at finding work for me.
Especially recipes that he wants to try when I make them!
His latest find was Green Goddess Rice which he discovered on a cooking channel while on call at the hospital.
Ingredients
2 Avocados
3 Cups cooked rice
1/2 cup Olive oil
3 Cloves crushed Garlic
1 cup chopped Basil
That was all I got from him.
I cooked the rice
Processed the other ingredients while the rice was cooking then mixed everything together and served warm.
This is my new favorite way to eat rice!
I love avocados and basil.
I can also see making this with Cilantro which I will soon try and serve with spicy Jalepeno beans.
I served this dish with sheep feta, olives and fresh avocados.
Divine indeed!
