Peruvian-marinated Roasted Tofu Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Marinate the Tofu

   Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into cubes or slabs. In a bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the tofu and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

   While the tofu is marinating, peel and cube the sweet potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.

3. 3

   Roast the Tofu

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the marinated tofu on the sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

4. 4

   Cook the Corn

   If using fresh corn, remove the kernels from the cob. Sauté the corn in a skillet with a little olive oil and season with salt for about 5-7 minutes until tender.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   Serve the roasted tofu on a plate alongside the boiled sweet potatoes and sautéed corn. Top with salsa criolla and fresh cilantro.
