Hawaiian-Style Fried Tofu With Coconut Rice

Absolutely delicious!! Super easy and I'll definitely be making this rice again! I didn't make the tofu this time, so I can't speak to that part of the recipe yet. I did use a white rice rather than brown like the recipe suggested since that's what I had After making the rice from this recipe a few times, it is still delicious! My only complaint is that it's quite oily so from now on I will probably be cutting back the additional coconut oil. I have been using normal coconut oil since that's what I have currently so that could also be a reason it's too oily. I've made this a few more times without any additional coconut oil and normal coconut milk. It has been delicious and definitely hasn't needed the extra oil! I don't think I'd add in much, if any, even if I was using light coconut milk.

I liked this for a change, but the rice reminded me too much of rice pudding (my first time trying coconut rice), especially with the sweet charred pineapple aswell. Also, I don't feel like the lemon and cayenne worked well together, I feel like lime would have been better. However, it was nice when mixed together though, but i don't think I'd try it again. I also added green beans once the rice was ready, and left for five minutes on top with the lid on; and charred some peppers alongside the pineapple.
