Ingredients

  • about 450 g Firm Tofu
  • 3 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Lime Juice

  • 8 each Skewers

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Press the about 450 g Firm Tofu to remove as much water as possible, then cut it into 2.54 cm cubes.
  2. 2In a medium bowl, whisk together the 3 tbsp Soy Sauce, 2 tbsp Lime Juice, 1 tbsp Brown Sugar, 2 cloves Garlic (minced), and 1 tsp Ginger (grated).
  3. 3Add the 2.54 cm cubes of tofu to the bowl with the marinade. Gently toss to coat all the tofu pieces. Let the tofu marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or cover and refrigerate for up to overnight.
  4. 4While the tofu marinates, prepare the dipping sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup Peanut Butter, 2 tbsp Coconut Milk, and 1 tsp Red Curry Paste until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water, about 1-2 teaspoons, and whisk again until it reaches a dippable consistency.
  5. 5Thread the marinated tofu cubes onto the 8 Skewers, leaving a small space between each cube.
  6. 6Preheat your grill to medium heat, aiming for a temperature of around 190°C.
  7. 7Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the tofu is heated through and has light brown grill marks. This should take approximately 10-14 minutes total.
  8. 8Remove the grilled tofu skewers from the grill. Serve immediately with the prepared spicy peanut dipping sauce.
