Agrant Vegetable & Cashew Biryani
This vegetarian and vegan cashew fried rice recipe uses tofu instead of eggs for a traditional
Chinese food fried rice dish - but completely vegan. The tofu has a very similar appearance and
texture, so you won't miss the eggs at all, and the cashews add even more texture and protein.
Who needs eggs? This egg-free
and vegan fried rice recipe with cashews will taste just as good as the vegetable fried rice recipes
you can order at Chinese restaurants!
Ingredients:
1. 1 container soft (silken) tofu, mashed
2. 1/8 tsp turmeric
3. 1 tsp onion powder
4. 1/2 tsp salt
5. 3 tbsp vegetable oil
6. 5 cups pre-cooked leftover rice
7. 1/2 cup chopped cashews
8. 3 tbsp soy sauce
9. 1 tsp sugar (optional)
10. 6 green onions, chopped
Preparation:
Mix the tofu, turmeric, onion powder and salt in a bowl and set aside.
In a medium skilled over medium heat, heat one tablespoon of the oil. Add the tofu mixture and
cook, stirring constantly for 10 minutes. Remove the tofu from the heat and set aside.

aside.
Place a dry wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. When the wok begins to smoke, add the
