Method

  • Rinse and drain the pot barley. Put it in a large saucepan along with the water and bouillon powder if using, or the homemade bouillon. Bring to the boil, lower the heat and cook for about 45 minutes, or until the pot barley is tender. Once cooked, drain the pot barley, reserving the cooking liquid.
  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan. Stir-fry the tofu cubes for about 5 minutes, until browned. Set aside.
  • Add the remaining tbsp olive oil in the saucepan and fry the chopped onion for 3 minutes, or until translucent. Add the crushed garlic and the vegetables and stir-fry for another 5 minutes or so.
  • Now add the tofu cubes, the drained pot barley, about 1 cup or 250ml of the cooking liquid and the crushed chillies, if using.
  • Simmer for about 10 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated.
  • Serve hot with a dollop of yoghurt (vegan) if you wish.
