How to make this recipe?
Step- 1:-
First, preheat the oven to 400 degree F and line a large baking sheet with paper towels. Block a squeeze over the sink to remove excess water and cut it into 3⁄4 inch cubes and place in a large bowl. Mix the arrowroot starch, salt and pepper over the tofu and toss to coat. Then put the tofu on the baking pan and bake for 10 minutes.
Step- 2:-
Until the tofu has been in the oven for 10 minutes then you wash and cut the broccoli into 1- inch florist. After the tofu has been in the oven for 10 minutes you take it out and push it to one side of the pan. Then distribute into one layer and spread the broccoli florist out on the other side. Put the pan back in the oven and continue to bake for 20 minutes until the tofu is firm and golden and the broccoli is tender and slightly crispy..
Step- 3:-
Then you make the sauce while the tofu and broccoli are in the oven. Put the nut butter in a small bowl and mix together with the tamari, lime juice, maple syrup, garlic, ginger and vinegar based hot sauce. Mix until creamy and you if the sauce is more stiff than you add water.
Step- 4:-
When you see that it is cooked, transfer the tofu to a large bowl and toss with the sauce. You toss and then keep adding until all the tofu is covered. Then divide the saucy tofu and broccoli among plates and garnish with chopped nuts or if you use almond butter but I will use chopped almonds.
My Few Notes:
Freshly ground black pepper will provide a more intense flavour.
You can use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten free option.
Add a splash of lemon juice before serving for a fresh tangy recipe.
You can store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
Tofu is well pressed to remove as much moisture as possible for better texture.
You can also reduce the tahini by 2 tablespoons for a lighter sauce.
Tips & Tricks:
