For the spiced coconut rice:
2 cups long-grain brown rice
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
1 1/2 cups water
2 bay leaves
3 green cardamom pods, lightly crushed
1 cinnamon stick
1 pinch kosher salt
For the baked coconut tofu:
1 pound firm tofu
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons shredded coconut

1
Add all ingredients to the pot of a rice cooker and stir. Cook according to your rice cooker's instructions. You can also make this on the stove by bringing it all to a boil then simmering, covered, until all of the liquid is absorbed.
2
Remove spices before serving.
3
Drain the tofu, dry with paper towels and cut into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.
4
Place all the remaining ingredients except coconut into a large zipper bag and mix until combined. Add in the tofu cubes, seal bag, and gently shake until all pieces are evenly coated. Marinate for 15 minutes.
5
Preheat oven to 350u00b0 F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
6
Place the shredded coconut on a large plate. Remove the tofu from the marinade (reserve the marinade to use as a salad dressing), and dredge each piece through the coconut before placing it onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle any remaining coconut on top of the tofu cubes.
7
Bake for 20 to 30 minutes until lightly browned. Serve with the coconut rice and a salad (I recommend shredded kale or sliced cucumber, dressed with the reserved marinade).
