Maple syrup and almond butter tofu - vegan
One of my favourite cafés serves peanut butter tofu. I thought i’d try with almond butter. Any green veggie goes well ... tatsoi, green beans, broccoli. Serve with rice or noodles. #vegan
Ingredient
Food ration :
for 2 servings

Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Heat the oven to 200C. Mix 1 tbsp sesame oil and 1 tbsp tamari.
* Step 2
Press the moisture out of the tofu and cut into cubes. Put in a baking dish. Drizzle the sesame/ tamari mix over the tofu. Bake for 30 minutes.
* Step 3
Mix the maple syrup and almond butter. Add the rest of the sesame oil with 1-2 tbsps (depends on how salty you like things) of the tamari. And add the lime juice. Mix it all together. Taste it and see if it needs more maple syrup/ almond butter/ lime depending on how you feel 😁 I added some chilli flakes today.
* Step 4
After about 30 minutes, when the tofu is crisping up, take it out of the oven. Pour 2/3 of the maple syrup sauce over it.
* Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a pan. Add the spring onions. Cook for a few minutes.
* Step 6
Add the tofu and sauce to the pan. Cook for a minute or two.
* Step 7
Add the pak choi. Cook for a couple of minutes until pak choi is wilted.
* Step 8
You can add some chopped spring onion and some more of the sauce to serve. Enjoy!
