Made with our Authentic Plant-Based Tofu
Ingredients:
1 x 396g block Cauldron Authentic Tofu, drained
3 tbsp cornflour
2 carrots, peeled & finely sliced
1/2 courgette, finely sliced
100g green beans, cut into 3cm pieces
1 tbsp rapeseed oil
For the sauce:
3 tbsp tamari soy sauce
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp sesame seeds
2cm fresh ginger, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
¼ tsp chilli flakes
3 tbsp water
1 tbsp cornflour
Method:
Prepare your rice according to the on-pack instructions.
Drain the Authentic Tofu block and gently press it in between your hands to remove any excess moisture. Chop into bite-size chunks and pre-heat the rapeseed oil in a non-stick frying pan.
Place 3 tbsp of cornflour into a small bowl and coat the tofu chunks with a thin layer. Place the tofu into the oil and fry until golden on all sides. Use a pair of chopsticks to carefully flip the chunks whilst cooking.
In the meantime, combine all ingredients for the sauce into a small jug and whisk.
Once the tofu cubes are golden, remove from the pan and add in your veggies (no need to clean in between!). Gently pan-fry the vegetables for about 5-10 minutes until soft, then add the tofu back into the pan and pour over the sauce. Stir with a spatula and remove from the heat whilst stirring until the sauce thickens.
Serve the tofu teriyaki over your cooked rice & enjoy!
