Breaded, Fried, Softly Spiced Tofu - Vegetarian Recipes - Best Vegetarian Recipes
Breaded, Fried, Softly Spiced Tofu
Recipe By:Miss Sriri
"This tofu recipe is completely gorgeous. A former roommate introduced me to some basics with tofu, and over the past few years, I've settled on this ratio of spices and other breading ingredients. The crust on the tofu sticks is tasty and the texture is really wonderful. Serve with a relish or a dip of some sort (I love this with plain yogurt mixed with eggplant brinjal). I usually make this with a cumin-scented rice dish and a garlicky broccoli side."

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained and pressed
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

  1. Cut pressed tofu into 1/2-inch thick slices; then cut again into 1/2-inch wide sticks. Place tofu in a bowl, and pour broth over the top. Set aside to soak.
  2. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, yeast, salt, pepper, sage, and cayenne.
  3. Warm oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove tofu sticks from broth, and squeeze most (but not all) of the liquid from them. Roll sticks in breading. (You may have to roll sticks twice to end up with a fairly dry outer layer of breading.) Place tofu in hot oil; fry until crisp and browned on all sides. Add more oil if necessary.

Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Soup - Vegetarian Recipes - Best Vegetarian Recipes
Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Soup
Recipe By:Miriam
"A delightfully rich-tasting soup. My husband likes this soup so much he refers to all butternut squashes as soup now. I recommend this with the silken tofu instead of milk - it adds protein to a fiber-rich soup, and no one will know it's there if you don't tell them! Serve warm with a sprinkling of grated Parmesan or Romano and some crusty toasted bread on the side."

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup diced red onion
  • 6 cups butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 6 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth, or as needed
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 green chile pepper, halved lengthwise (optional)
  • 1 cup silken tofu, divided
  • salt to taste

Directions

  1. Melt the butter in a large stock pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and enough vegetable broth to cover. Stir in the thyme, ginger, turmeric, coriander, black pepper, and chile pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until vegetables are very tender, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Remove and discard the chile pepper. Pour about 1/3 of the soup and 1/3 of the tofu into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Repeat with the remaining soup and tofu. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup and tofu right in the cooking pot.

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package tofu
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 serrano peppers, seeded and minced
  • 4 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (16 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 2 cups half-and-half cream
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  1. Place the block of tofu onto a plate and place another plate on top. Set a 3 to 5 pound weight on top (a container filled with water works well). Press the tofu for 20 to 30 minutes, then drain off and discard the accumulated liquid.
  2. Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  3. Whisk the yogurt, lemon juice, 2 teaspoons cumin, cayenne pepper, paprika, 1 teaspoon garam masala, and minced ginger together in a bowl. Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes, and gently stir into the yogurt mixture. Arrange the tofu cubes onto the prepared baking sheet so they do not touch each other.
  4. Bake the tofu in the preheated oven until the tofu has firmed and the sauce is no longer sticky, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Gently turn the tofu every 15 minutes during baking.
  5. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the garlic and serrano peppers in the hot butter until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the coriander, 2 teaspoons cumin, 2 teaspoons garam masala, and salt. Cook another minute to release the fragrance of the spices. Add the tomato sauce and cauliflower florets; cover and cook, stirring frequently until the cauliflower is tender, about 15 minutes.
  6. Once the cauliflower is tender, stir in the half-and-half, peas, cilantro, and baked tofu cubes. Bring to a simmer, and cook 5 minutes, or until your desired thickness is attained.
