Ingredients
- 1 tbsp. Lucy Bee Coconut Oil
- 1 thumb-sized piece of fresh ginger, grated
- 1 garlic clove, grated
- 1 red chilli, sliced
- 2 tsp. tamari
- ½ tsp. coconut sugar
- 2 tsp. rice wine vinegar
- 140g firm tofu, cut into chunks
- ½ broccoli head, cut into little florets
- 1 small carrot, peeled into strips
- 75g mangetout
- 4 spring onions, sliced
- 1 tbsp. sesame seeds
- 120g brown rice, cooked
- 1 tsp. sesame oil

Method
- In a wok or frying pan, add the Lucy Bee Coconut Oil. Heat to melt before adding the ginger, garlic, chilli, tamari, Coconut Sugar and rice wine vinegar and stir together.
- Add the tofu and fry for 3-4 minutes, on a medium heat, turning constantly to allow the flavours to coat the tofu.
- Add the broccoli, carrot and mangetout and fry for 3 minutes – if looking a little dry, add a splash more tamari.
- Lastly, add in the spring onions and sesame seeds, fry for 30 seconds.
- Serve with the cooked brown rice and drizzle some sesame oil over.
- This is equally delicious to eat straight away or to take to work for lunch.
Enjoy!

Lucy & the family
A family story, rooted in gluten-free cooking
Lucy’s coeliac diagnosis changed the way the family cooked and ate. Reading labels, choosing ingredients carefully and preparing meals from scratch became second nature.
These recipes reflect our family’s love of natural, minimally processed ingredients and food to enjoy together, including recipes from our two coconut oil cookbooks.
