1.

Add your white long grain rice to a pot with a lid with 225ml [300ml] [450ml] cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 12-15 min or until all the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked

Once done, remove from the heat and set aside (lid on) to steam until serving

Step 1
2.

Drain your tofu and pat it dry with kitchen paper

Tear your tofu into large chunks

Add the torn tofu to a bowl with your gluten free soy sauce, ground smoked paprika, roasted garlic paste and cornflour

Give everything a good mix up until the tofu is fully coated – this is your coated tofu

Step 2
3.

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat

Once hot, add the coated tofu to the pan (reserve the bowl) with a pinch of salt and pepper and cook for 6-7 min or until golden and crispy – this is your crispy tofu

Chop your coriander finely, including the stalks

Step 4

Add the chopped tomato and most of the chopped coriander (save some for garnish!) to a bowl with your white wine vinegar, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil

Mix it all together – this is your tomato salsa

Step 5

Roll your orange[s] with your hand on a hard surface (to release more juice) and cut in half

Add the juice of your orange[s] to the reserved bowl with your chipotle paste (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and 100ml [130ml] [170ml] cold water

Season with a pinch of salt and sugar and stir it all together – this is your chipotle & orange sauce

Step 6

Once crisp, add the chipotle & orange sauce to the pan with the tofu and cook for a further 2-3 min or until the sauce has thickened and the tofu is fully coated – this is your chipotle & orange tofu
