Ingredients
For the Cauliflower Rice

  • 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
For the Sauce
  • ½ cup hoisin sauce
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 ½ tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1 ½ tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
For the Hoisin Tofu and Mushrooms
  • 1 lb. extra firm tofu drained and pressed for at least 15 minute
  • 2 tbsp. vegetable oil divided
  • 4 cups white button mushrooms cleaned, stemmed and thinly sliced
  • 2 scallions chopped
  • 1-2 tsp. sesame seeds
Instructions
Make the Cauliflower Rice
  1. Break cauliflower crown into a few large chunks and place in food processor bowl. Pulse until chopped into rice-sized pieces.
  2. Coat large skillet with oil and place over medium heat. Add cauliflower and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Divide onto plates.
Make the Sauce
  1. Whisk all ingredients together in small bowl. Set aside.
Make the Hoisin Tofu and Mushrooms
  1. Slice tofu into ½ inch thick slabs, then slice each slab into 1 inch wide squares or triangles.
  2. Coat large skillet with half of oil and place over medium heat. Arrange mushroom slices in a single layer. Cook about 5 minutes, flip and cook another 5 minutes, until browned on both sides. Divide over cauliflower rice.
  3. Add remaining oil to skillet and raise heat to medium-high. Arrange tofu pieces in a single layer. Cook about 3 minutes, flip and cook another 3 minutes, until browned on both sides. Pour half of sauce over tofu. Cook 2 minutes, flip and cook 2 minutes more, just until sauce thickens and coats tofu.
  4. Divide tofu over cauliflower rice and mushrooms. Top with remaining sauce, sesame seeds and scallions.
