i am also currently obsessed with making delicious tofu fried rice. you have probably been making it for longer than i have, but my recipe is somewhat self-invented and i am very proud of the end product. my last batch i cooked enough for like… 11 servings? i am in love. it is basically all I eat now and im losing a lot of weight because of it

if you want any tips I would recommend using this for rice seasoning: https://badiaspices.com/product/fried-rice-seasoning-126-oz/ (this spice brand is a favorite of mine) and maybe a bit of that on vegetables too

some lemon pepper seasoning, garlic/onion, for everything including the rice, cut the veggies up really tiny so that they mix in with the rice better.

for my tofu i always freeze overnight and then dethaw and press for 35ish minutes then dice them, flavor it in a bit of artificial chicken flavoring and then add the lemon pepper and more of the other seasonings i used on the veg and rice.

one thing i really like about tofu fried rice is that it typically leaves me feeling satisfied with what I ate, without feeling overstuffed or wanting a second serving, which I cannot say about many foods

Very helpful, believe I’ve been adding the sauce too early, wok definitely doesn’t seem hot enough even with the flame all the way up, and it ends up soggy
