Method
Preparation of Ingredients
Press the Tofu
Place the tofu block between two plates and weight it down with something heavy (like a can) for about 15 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Chop the Cilantro
Rinse the cilantro under running water, shake off excess water, and chop roughly.
Cooking the Tofu
Cube the Tofu
Once the tofu is pressed, cut it into bite-sized cubes.
Sauté the Tofu
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed tofu and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown.
Season the Tofu
Add soy sauce, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the skillet with the tofu. Stir well to coat the tofu evenly and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Assembly
Combine Ingredients
In a large serving bowl, combine the sautéed tofu, jicama, cucumbers, avocado, and cilantro. Toss gently to mix everything together.
Serve
Serve immediately as a refreshing salad or as a filling for wraps. Enjoy!
