Cilantro Garlic Tofu

Ingredients

390-450g medium-firm or firm tofu

Salt

1/2 cup (20g) cilantro leaves and stems, roughly chopped

2 small garlic cloves, minced

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1 tablespoon nutritional yeast

Directions


  1. Cut the tofu into 2cm cubes.

  2. Bring water to boil in a medium saucepan. Salt heavily. Add the tofu and cook for 3-4 minutes. This process will expel the stale water inside the curd and infuse salt within to flavour it. Drain well and place in a large bowl.

  3. Add the cilantro, garlic cloves, sesame oil, nutritional yeast, and salt to taste. Serve warm, room temperature or transfer to the refrigerator to serve chilled. Serve with rice and your favourite vegetable for a complete meal.
