This satay sauce is so easy to make. It goes amazingly well with the traditionally bland tofu as the tofu just soaks up all the flavours. 

INGREDIENTS
MAKES 4 x 1 CUP SERVES

  • 600g (20 oz) firm tofu drained and cubed
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • garnish: chopped fresh coriander (cilantro)

SATAY SAUCE

  • 1 tablespoon Thai red curry paste
  • 1 tablespoon ginger puree or ginger finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ¼ cup hot water
  • ½ teaspoon salt

METHOD

  1. In a pan cook the tofu and oil for 10 minutes or until it is golden brown. Depending on the firmness and water in your tofu this step may take between 5 and 15 minutes.
  2. Set the tofu aside. In the hot pan put the satay sauce ingredients and stir around for 2 minutes or until you have a nice smooth sauce. You may need to add a little more water.
  3. Combine the tofu with the sauce. Cook for 5 minutes or until the flavours have soaked in and the tofu is well coated and starts to caramalise.
  4. Serve with a garnish of chopped fresh coriander.
