Thick slices of tofu in a ginger-tamari marinade, baked until golden, with sesame greens.
Equipment: Baking tray
Measures and names
Ingredients
- 400 g extra-firm tofu, pressed and cut into 2cm steaks
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 15 g fresh ginger, grated
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- 250 g tenderstem broccoli (broccolini)
Method
- Heat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C). Whisk the tamari, ginger, garlic and sesame oil, and turn the tofu steaks in it.
- Lay the tofu on a lined tray and bake for 15 minutes.
- Turn the tofu, add the broccoli tossed in olive oil, and bake for 10 more minutes.
- Scatter with sesame seeds and spoon over any remaining marinade. Taste before adding salt — the tamari already seasons the dish.
Swaps and tips
Pressing the tofu first makes all the difference - 15 minutes under a weighted plate. Extra-firm tofu only.
