Cashew Nut Crusted Tofu Recipes

Steps:

• Process bread crumbs and nuts in food processor until fine. Add nutritional yeast flakes, chicken style, parsley, salt and margarine. Process until mixed.
• Spread olive oil on tofu slices, place on a foil or parchment lined baking sheet, and bake at 350 degrees for 15-25 minutes. Cool.
• Dip prepared tofu slices in coconut milk, oil or water and then dip into crumb mixture, coating on both sides.
• Bake at 350*F. degrees for 20-30 minutes, or until browned.
• Serve with tartar sauce and garnish with green onions and sliced almonds.

Steps:

• Slice the tofu in half horizontally, and leave on paper towels to dry any excess liquid.
• In a medium skillet or cast-iron pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high until it shimmers. Season both sides of the tofu with salt and black pepper, place in the pan and sear without moving until tofu is browned and golden on both sides, turning once halfway through, about 8 minutes total. Move the tofu to a plate.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, and add the snap peas. Cook, stirring occasionally, until blistered and just tender, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and move to a bowl.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, add the ginger and garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the coconut milk, soy sauce and molasses. Simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce reduces and its color deepens to a dark brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. It should coat a spoon without running right off. Stir in the cashews, break the tofu into 1-inch pieces and toss in the pan to coat with sauce. Remove from heat, and taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
• Toss the snap peas with the rice vinegar, scallions, mint and red-pepper flakes, if using. Divide among plates, along with the tofu and cashews. Serve with rice or any steamed grain.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a non-stick wok. Add the broccoli, then fry on a high heat for 5 mins or until just tender, adding a little water if it begins to catch. Add the garlic and chilli, fry for 1 min, then toss through the spring onions, soya beans, pak choi and tofu. Stir-fry for 2-3 mins. Add the hoisin, soy and nuts to warm through.

Steps:

• Sauté the onion and garlic in the oil until tender, then remove from heat.
• Chop or grind the cashew nuts with the bread.
• Add the cashew/bread mixture to the sautéed onion and garlic, then mix in the remaining roast ingredients: broth, nutmeg, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
• In a separate bowl, mix together all stuffing ingredients: bread crumbs, butter, onion, celery, thyme, marjoram, sage, parsley, and salt.
• Put half the cashew mixture into a greased loaf pan that is either nonstick or lined with parchment paper.
• Layer all the stuffing on top of the of the first layer of cashew mixture in the loaf pan.
• Layer the rest of the cashew mixture on top of the stuffing layer.
• Dot top of the loaf with margarine.
• Place the loaf pan on a cookie sheet to catch drippings, and bake in a preheated oven at 400 °F for 30 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned (loosely cover the roast with foil if it browns too quickly).
• Allow it to cool a few minutes, then use a knife to loosen it from the sides of the pan, and turn it out onto a plate.
