This was outstanding, guys! This is going to end up as a regular for me. I swapped rice for cauliflower rice (calorie counting as probably given away by previous comment lol) and used smoked tofu because smoked tofu is life. Air fried with low cal spray and it was absolutely banging!! Fantastic recipe, thank you!

Sorry to be that person - does anyone know if the calories under the nutrition part include the rice or if its just for the tofu mixture? Thanks :)
