Tofu Satay

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into bite-sized cubes. Marinate the tofu in a mixture of red curry paste, coconut milk, soy sauce, maple syrup, and lime juice for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Skewer the Tofu

    Once marinated, thread the tofu onto the skewers. Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Cook the Skewers

    Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the tofu is heated through and has grill marks.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small saucepan, combine any leftover marinade and heat gently to create a sauce. Allow it to simmer for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the grilled tofu satay drizzled with the creamy red curry sauce, alongside West African jollof rice and Moroccan slaw.
