current form.***

A very basic quick teriyaki tofu with steamed vegetables, rice, and
mass manufactured teriyaki sauce in a bottle. I like to add some snow
peas and baby corn when available.

* Ingredients

 - 1 crown broccoli
 - 1 bunch green onions
 - 2 cups long grained american white rice
 - 2 ½ cups water
 - ¼ tsp fine grained sea salt
 - 14oz firm tofu
 - 1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
 - 3 tbsp sesame oil
 - 1 tbsp corn starch
 - ¼ tsp freshly ground pepper
 - ⅓ cup low sodium teriyaki sauce

* Directions

While oven is preheating for the tofu, prepare the tofu and
vegetables, aiming to get the rice cooking around the time the tofu
goes into the oven, and the vegetables steaming around ten minutes
after the tofu goes into the oven.

 1. Mix 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp corn starch, ¼
    tsp ground pepper in bowl

 1. Toss tofu in sauce
 1. Place tofu in rows on parchment paper lined baking sheet
 1. Bake tofu for 30 minutes @ 400°F, flipping cubes after 15 minutes.

** Vegetables

 1. Chop broccoli into florets
 1. Steam broccoli for six minutes

** Rice

 1. Bring 2 ½ cups water and ¼ tsp fine grained sea salt to boil
 1. Add 2 cups long grained american white rice, cover, reduce heat to
    low and simmer for 25 minutes
 1. Remove from heat and fluff with fork

** Bringing It together

 1. Chop green onions
 1. Heat skillet on medium heat with 2tbsp of sesame oil
 1. Add vegetables, green onions, and tofu to pan
 1. Add ⅓ cup teriyaki sauce to pan
 1. Coat vegetables and tofu in sauce, swirl around for 2-3 minutes,

sauce from upstream recipe is boring

 - 1 tbsp soy sauce
 - 1 tsp el yucateco reserve (smoky)
 - 1 tbsp sesame oil
 - 1 tbsp corn starch
 - 1/4 tsp ground pepper
 - 1 tbsp teriyaki sauce

*** frying

I'm not bothering to fry the tofu after baking, just too much stuff in
the pan at once
