10-Minute Broccoli Tofu Bowls

firm tofu ((450 grams))

chicken or vegetable stock ((235 ml))

soy sauce

Shaoxing wine ((or dry sherry cooking wine))

sesame oil

sugar

vegetable oil

garlic ((chopped))

broccoli ((450 grams,

cornstarch ((dissolved in 2 tablespoons water))

Cut your block of tofu into bite-sized cubes and set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the stock, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, wine, sesame oil, and sugar, and set aside.

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat, and add the garlic. Cook for a minute, being careful not to let the garlic burn. Add the broccoli, and crank up the heat to high, stir-frying the broccoli for a minute or to, just until it starts to turn a bright green color.

Add the tofu and your stock mixture, tossing everything together gently. Bring to a simmer, and stir in the cornstarch slurry. Allow to simmer for about 2 minutes, until the sauce has thickened. Serve over steamed rice!

Spicy Peanut Tofu Bowls with Quick Pickled Veggies

Preheat oven to 425℉. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place tofu cubes on the baking sheet and add the sesame oil, maple syrup, rice wine vinegar, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and soy sauce until evenly coated. Sprinkle on the cornstarch and toss again to coat. Bake for 40-45 minutes, tossing halfway through baking, until golden and crispy on the edges. After baking, toss in 2 tablespoons of the peanut sauce.

For the tofu

In a medium bowl, combine the red onion, apple cider vinegar, honey, and salt. Let sit for 20-30 minutes while tofu is baking. That's it!

For the quick pickled red onions

In a medium bowl, combine the cucumber, apple cider vinegar, honey, and salt. Let sit for 20-30 minutes while tofu is baking. That's it!

For the quick pickled cucumbers

In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, lime juice, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sriracha, honey, sesame oil, and chili garlic sauce until smooth. Add the hot water and whisk together until smooth and creamy. If you like a thinner sauce, add more hot water a tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.

For the peanut sauce

Heat about an inch of vegetable or canola oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.&nbsp;You will know when oil is ready when you stick the end of a wooden spoon in the oil and tiny bubbles form around it. Fry the shallots in batches, for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Season with salt while they are hot. Let drain on paper towels. Do this in 2-3 batches to avoid overcrowding.

For the crispy shallots

Place tofu over a bed of rice. Top with a generous drizzle of peanut sauce and a handful of pickled onions and cucumbers. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts, scallions, cilantro, sesame seeds, and a handful of crispy shallots. Devour!

To serve

This recipe is actually really simple; it'll be in your bowl in under 1 hour. All you have to do is cook your grain, pan-­fry your tofu, and sauté some veggies.

Pineapple BBQ Tofu Bowls

­1 14 ounce package extra firm tofu

quinoa

barbecue sauce,

bell peppers, thinly sliced

zucchini, thinly sliced

red onion, thinly sliced

pineapple,

coconut flakes, cilantro, avocado

Drain the tofu. Wrap in several paper towels; place in the sink. Place a heavy object (such as a large pot with a heavy weight inside) on top of the tofu to press the water out. You can also use a tofu press. Let the tofu drain for 20­-30 minutes.

Rinse quinoa in a small mesh strainer. Heat a small saucepan over medium heat; add quinoa. Cook for 1­2 minutes until lightly toasted. Add 1 1⁄3 cups water; turn heat to high. Once boiling, cover and cook for 13-­15 minutes, until fluffy.

Slice the drained tofu into thin 1⁄2 ­inch chunks. Place in a medium bowl; add barbecue sauce. Let it marinade for up to 10 minutes.

In a skillet over medium heat, warm up a little oil. Add bell peppers and zucchini; stir. Cook for 5-­7 minutes, until vegetables are your desired tenderness. Set aside in a bowl or on plate.

Add a little more oil to the same skillet; add the tofu. Pan­ fry for about 2­-3 minutes, until crispy; flip the tofu chunks, and cook on the other side for an additional 2­-3 minutes. Repeat until the tofu is crispy.

To arrange a bowl, add cooked quinoa, vegetables, and tofu. Top with red onion, pineapple slices, additional barbecue sauce, and other desired toppings.

Aloha made it this evening for dinner, very filling, it was great! Going to try it with Grilled Mango instead of Pineapple next time.

I loved this. I made the veggies in oven, because I prefer roasted veggies. I also put the pineapple in the oven to caramelize it. It turned out absolutely delicious.

I haven’t made this yet just found the recipe but looking at the picture with the half pineapple when I make this that’s what I’m serving it in

Your Satay sauce look incredible Jess! You truly always have the best lunch recipes!

This bowl looks and sounds so good to me! Totally love the ingredients and combination with crispy tofu and peanuts 😍 Great recipe, Jess!❤️

Hi! This dish is lovely! I saw in the description that it is Thai cuisine, but satay is actually an Indonesian dish. Does this particular dish have a Thai spin on it?

Omg! Super satisfying and delicious. I love all kinds of bowls

My soul in a bowl! These bold, bright Mediterranean baked tofu bowls with charred za'atar eggplant, creamy tahini yogurt sauce, and tomato cucumber salad are a flavor and texture explosion. So fresh, so filling, and so nourishing. Plus they're a breeze to make! Basically everything I ever want in a meal, on the table in just over 30 minutes.

Mediterranean Tofu Bowls with Eggplant and Tahini Yogurt Sauce

lb super firm "pressed" tofu, torn into 1-inch pieces*

eggplant,

tbsp extra virgin olive oil

tbsp za'atar

tsp kosher salt*

Greek Yogurt Tahini Sauce

quick tomato cucumber salad, see notes***

mint leaves, torn (do not skip!)

Preheat oven to 425F. Line an extra large sheet pan (or two regular ones) with parchment paper. It's important there's enough room for proper browning.

Use your hands to crumble tofu into 1 inch pieces in your largest mixing bowl. It'll break down a bit when you mix in spices, so air on the side of larger. We're going for rustic! Add eggplant pieces.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, za'atar, kosher salt, garlic powder, and Aleppo pepper flakes. Pour over tofu and eggplant and use your hands to gently combine until everything's coated. Dump onto lined baking sheet and spread in an even layer, making sure nothing is touching.

Bake for about 30 minutes, flipping after 20 minutes. 

Meanwhile, make yogurt tahini sauce (you can omit the cumin since we have lots of spices). Make sure when you taste that it has enough lemon and salt to really pop!

Make quick cucumber tomato salad (see recipe notes below).

Assemble bowls by spreading a spoon push of yogurt sauce on one side of a shallow bowl. Top with eggplant and tofu, then tomato cucumber salad. Garnish with lots of torn mint, and devour! Store leftovers seperalet in the fridge for up to 5 days. I like to reheat tofu/eggplant in my air fryer.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe!  The za'atar, garlic, &amp; Aleppo pepper flakes is spot on!  The Greek Yogurt Tahini sauce is insanely delish--&amp; it's so good spread on crackers or seeded sourdough bread.  I used a large eggplant--which was fine, BUT, it's easier to make separate marinades--1 for the tofu &amp; 1 for the eggplant---mix them up in separate bowls--or brush marinade on the eggplant.  Do tofu separate from the eggplant &amp; bake them on their own sheet pans.  The tofu won't break down as you mix in the marinade, PLUS the eggplant has more volume &amp; absorbs the oil/spice mixture, leaving little for the tofu.  Might even be better to just brush the marinade on the eggplant.  I will DEFINITELY make this again.  And the Creamy Tahini Greek Tofu Sauce can be used for vegetables, a dressing, &amp; a spread!  THANKS FOR SHARING!!!
