Sautéed Carrots With Seaweed, Ginger, And Tofu

• 1 cup dried arame or other shredded seaweed (1 ounce)
• 1 pound firm or extra-firm tofu, drained and cut into 1/2-inch slices
• 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil, divided
• 1 1/2 cups julienne-cut carrot (1 pound)
• 1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions
• 1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 4 cups hot cooked long-grain brown rice
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

1. Cover arame with water; let stand 15 minutes. Drain.
2. Brush tofu slices with 1 teaspoon oil. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu, and cook until liquid from tofu is evaporated (3 minutes). Remove tofu from pan. Cool and cut into 1/4-inch pieces, and set aside.
3. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add carrot, onions, and ginger; cook 4 minutes or until carrot is golden brown, stirring frequently. Stir in arame and salt; cook 3 minutes or until arame is tender. Stir in tofu and soy sauce. Cook for 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve with rice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
4. Note: Seaweed is sold at health-food stores and Asian supermarkets.
