Grilled Tofu With Peanut Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the coconut milk, soy sauce, chili-garlic sauce, ginger, brown sugar and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Firmly press the tofu dry with paper towels, cut into eight 1/2-inch-thick slabs, then firmly press dry again. Arrange in a small baking dish and pour half of the coconut milk mixture over the top; turn to coat. Refrigerate 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, whisk the peanut butter and vinegar into the remaining coconut milk mixture until smooth; season with salt and pepper and set aside for serving.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Oil the grates. Trim the broccoli and peel the stalks; slice into thin spears. Toss with the vegetable oil; season with salt.
• Grill the broccoli, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and crisp-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the tofu from the marinade and pat dry; season with salt. Grill the tofu, lightly brushing occasionally with the marinade, until well marked, about 2 minutes per side. Serve the tofu and broccoli with the peanut sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Cut tofu into eight ½ inch thick triangles.
• Marinate for one hour in soy sauce, orange juice concentrate and brown sugar.
• Grill or broil until browned.
• Puree veggie broth, peanut buutter, brown sugar and ginger.
• Sprinkle tofu with sliced scallions and serve with the peanut sauce.

Steps:

• Mix coconut milk, kecap manis, curry paste, turmeric powder, ginger, and vegan fish sauce together in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Seal and shake to mix.
• Cut tofu into 2-inch pieces and place in the bag. Seal and shake to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes.
• Combine peanut butter, coconut milk, chili-garlic sauce, kecap manis, lime juice, and ginger in a bowl. Whisk until sauce is smooth. Set aside.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove the tofu pieces and tap to remove any excess marinade. Skewer an equal number of tofu pieces onto each skewer.
• Grill the skewers on each side until browned, basting the skewers with the marinade as they cook, 10 to 15 minutes total.
• Drizzle the peanut sauce over the skewers and serve with extra sauce and lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Prepare the satay: Place the tofu in a folded dish towel and gently press to remove excess liquid. Cut tofu into 1-inch cubes.
• Cut the thicker white and light green stalks of the scallions into 1-inch pieces. Thinly slice the thinner, dark green scallion stalks on the diagonal and reserve for the garnish.
• Make the peanut sauce: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add shallots, chiles and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a food processor or blender. Add the peanut butter, 5 tablespoons kecap manis and ⅓ cup plus 1 tablespoon water, and blend until almost smooth. (It makes about 1 ½ cups.) Transfer sauce to a small bowl. (If the sauce thickens, add more water by the tablespoon until it is pourable.)
• Assemble the satay: Place a cube of eggplant onto a bamboo skewer, followed by a piece of pineapple, bell pepper, scallion, tofu and another piece of eggplant. Repeat with the remaining skewers.
• Heat the grill or a griddle pan over high. Use a pastry brush to dab the 1/4 cup oil all over the skewers. Once hot, line the skewers on the grill or griddle pan, working in batches as needed. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning every 2 to 3 minutes with a metal spatula or tongs, until the eggplant is cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
• Prepare the glaze: Mix 4 tablespoons kecap manis with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Brush the glaze all over the skewers.
• Pool about 1 cup peanut sauce onto a large serving plate, spreading it close to the edges of the plate. Lay the cooked skewers on top, then spoon the remaining peanut sauce on top. Drizzle lightly with 1 tablespoon of kecap manis, and garnish with the sliced scallions.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together all the above ingredients. Thin out as desired with water. Brush or spoon onto sliced tofu (cooked or uncooked).
