Answers:
SWEET-SOUR TOFU
Ingredients:
250 gm tofu, cut into cubes
1 green chili, sliced
1 large onion, finely chopped
3-4 cloves garlic
1 tbsp vinegar
1/2-1 tsp soy sauce
1 tbsp cornflour
1/2 tsp cumin
1 cup tomato ketchup
A few tsp chili/garlic sauce (optional)
2 tbsp oil
Serves: 4
Method: Put a thick-bottomed pan onto gentle heat. Pour in oil. After a few seconds, add chili and onion. Sauté till the onion begins to brown. Add garlic and cumin. As soon as the cumin begins to darken, add ketchup, chili or garlic sauce, vinegar and soy sauce. Raise the heat and let the mixture come to a gentle boil.
Meanwhile, mix the cornflour to a smooth paste with a few tablespoons of water. Add it to the simmering sauce along with as much water (probably 1/2-3/4 cup) as you need to make a smooth consistency.
Cook for a few minutes more, stirring continuously, and then add the tofu cubes. Simmer for another few minutes.
To make the dish more substantial, add boiled peas, potatoes, or even a combination of vegetables.
GOOD-HEALTH TOFU SALAD
Ingredients:
250 gm tofu, cut into small cubes
1 fresh medium-sized lettuce
1 large cucumber
1 large capsicum
1 apple
1 orange
A handful of sprouts
4 lemons
5 tsp honey
Salt and pepper to taste
Serves: 4-6
Method: Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Peel and cut cucumber into cubes. Chop capsicum into tiny bits. Peel and chop apple into small pieces. Peel an orange, remove the tough outer threads and as many seeds as you can. Cut orange into bits. Put these ingredients in a bowl. Add sprouts and tofu.
Prepare the dressing with lemon juice and honey. Add salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. Serve immediately.
For an interesting variation, add pineapple instead of an orange. You could also add boiled potatoes.
TOFU-VEGETABLE BAKE
Ingredients:
500 gm tofu
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp honey or sugar
1 large capsicum, sliced
4 onions, sliced
4-5 cloves garlic, finely sliced or crushed
1/2 kg tomatoes, unpeeled, pureed
1 pack tomato puree
A generous pinch of oregano
Salt, pepper, green or red chili to taste
Grated cheese
2 tbsp oil
Serves: 6
Method: Place tofu on a large plate or chopping board, tilted at an angle that will best allow excess moisture to drain away. Keep for 30 minutes, and then slice thickly, lightly butter a baking dish and put the tofu slices in it in layers.
Sauce: Gently heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan or karhai or wok. Add the onions, using some of the green stems too. Add garlic, sauté for a few minutes. Add tomato puree and seasoning. Add 12 cup water. Cook for 10 minutes, or till the sauce has a thick, glossy consistency. Add mushrooms, cook for another 10 minutes. Take off the fire and stir in honey or sugar.
Pour the sauce over the tofu. Top with capsicum and cheese. Bake in a preheated oven (3500 F/1800C) for 20-30 minutes or till the dish is heated through and the cheese has melt
Other Answers:
Roll it in cornflour with ground black pepper or garlic pepper and fry it very hot until crispy.
You can do whatever you want with it but I find that fried or baked tofu has a spongy texture, and I'm not fond of that.
I normally throw tofu into a stir-fry, or I will make a package of vegetables and sauce (Green Giant has some teriyaki and szechuan vegetables I especially like to use). While the vegetables heat up I cut the tofu into cubes, put it in a bowl, and then pour the veggies and sauce over the tofu. It warms up the tofu without making it feel like a sponge in my mouth.
You can stir fry it. You can buy different firmness of tofu.
You can even put it in soup.
