Instructions
Remove the tofu from the package and drain out any excess liquid. Take half the block and cut into cubes
Add to a pan with the oil. Mash the tofu until it has a scrambled egg consistency.
Add the turmeric, salt and garlic powder and stir together over low heat. Let cook for about 5 minutes to blend all of the flavors.
Finely dice the onion and add to a pot with the oil. Saute for about 2-3 minutes or until it softens slightly.
Add in the minced garlic and ginger and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Next, add in the frozen vegetable medley and let cook until defrosted.
Whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, red pepper flakes and sesame oil.
Add the sauce and rice to the pot of veggies and mix well to combine.
Carefully fold in the tofu and let simmer to lightly fry and absorb all of the flavors for about 5 minutes. Top with chopped green onion and enjoy!
