Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 pound Firm tofu
1/4 cup Red onion -- sliced
1 each Green onion -- chopped
1/4 cup Mint leaves -- chopped
2 pounds Assorted vegetables -- chopped
2 tablespoons Soy sauce
2 tablespoons Lime juice
1/2 teaspoon Ground toasted rice*
1 tablespoon Ground roasted chilies+
Cut the tofu into cubes. Set aside on paper towels to drain. Heat a wok &
add the tofu without oil. Stir-fry until heated through, but not crisp.
Put in a mixing bowl.
Add all the remaining ingredients except the assorted vegetables & lettuce.
Mix thoroughly. Line a serving bowl with a layer of lettuce leaves & pour
the saute over them. Serve surrounded by rice & assorted vegetables.
*Heat uncooked rice over moderate heat until golden, stirring to prevent
burning. When the colour is uniform, remove from heat, cool & gring to a
powder. It is best to use a mortar & pestle.
+Roast whole chilies, stems too, in a dry wok until they darken. Be
careful that they do not burn. Cool. Remove stems & seeds. Grind.
