Servings 3
Ingredients
- a thumb size of ginger
- 1 glove of garlic
- 1/4 onion chopped
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper deseeded
- 1/4 tsp curry powder
- 1/4 tsp of cumin powder
- 2 tbsp of water
- 1 tbsp of soy sauce
- 1 packet extra firm tofu
Instructions
- First, squeeze out the excess water from the extra firm tofu with a paper towel and cut into six even pieces
- In a small blender, pulse all the ingredients except the tofu to get a fine paste. Taste the paste to make sure there is enough salt.
- Then, line a baking tray with aluminum and spray with some cooking oil
- After, add half of the paste on the baking tray then lay the tofu steak on top, making sure the bottom of all the tofu has been mixed with the marinade
- After laying the tofu steaks, pour the remaining seasoning paste over the tofu and make sure each tofu steak has ample seasoning.
- Set the tofu aside for 20 minutes to allow it to marinade
- While the tofu is marinading, pre-heat the oven to 450F
- After the oven has preheated, bake the tofu for 25 minutes
- After 25 minutes, the tofu is ready to serve. You can eat this with anything, in sandwiches, as an extra side of protein. It basically takes the place of mock meat.
