Ingredients

    ½ block of extra firm tofu
    2 tsp of olive oil
    1 tsp of curry powder
    1 tsp of garlic salt/powder
    Squeeze of lemon juice
    2 cups of frozen stir fry vegetables

Directions

Mix together the oil, curry powder, garlic salt/powder, and squeeze of lemon juice in a bowl. Set aside.

Wrap the half block of tofu in paper towel. Squeeze as much water out of the tofu into the paper towels as you can, without crumbling the tofu. Cut into small squares and put into a skillet on medium-high heat. You don’t need to oil the pan, as the liquid from the tofu will be sufficient. Cook for a few minutes until the tofu starts to turn golden, then remove from heat.

Brush half the marinade onto tofu and cook for another two minutes. Turn over tofu chunks and brush on remaining marinade. Cook until desired firmness is achieved. Serve with frozen vegetables, stir fried in the same skillet. You may need to use cooking spray to stir fry the veggies if all the oil has burned off.

Unfortunately, marinating the tofu in the curry mix prior to cooking does not yield the same results as marinating animal products does; it will not absorb. This is why you marinate the tofu as it's cooking.

Happy eating :)
