Instructions

1. 1Place the 1 block Firm Tofu on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Place another towel on top and press down firmly to remove excess water. Cut the pressed tofu into 2.54 cm cubes.
2. 2Prepare the vegetables for steaming. Cut the 2 medium Potatoes into 2.54 cm cubes. Trim the ends off the 1 cup Green Beans. Cut the 1 cup Cabbage into 2.54 cm pieces. Separate the 1 cup Broccoli Florets.
3. 3Steam the prepared vegetables. Place the 1 cup Broccoli Florets, 1 cup Green Beans, 1 cup Cabbage, and 2 medium Potatoes in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for 8-10 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. 4Make the peanut-free sauce. In a blender, combine the 1/2 cup Sunflower Seed Butter, 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce, 2 tablespoons Lime Juice, 2 cloves Garlic (peeled), 1 tablespoon Brown Sugar, 1/2 teaspoon Chili Flakes, and 1/4 cup Water. Blend on high speed until the sauce is completely smooth and creamy.
5. 5Fry the tofu. Heat 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil in a 25.4 cm non-stick skillet over medium-high heat (190.6°C / 190°C). Add the 2.54 cm cubes of tofu and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and slightly crispy.
6. 6Assemble the Gado-Gado. Arrange the steamed 1 cup Broccoli Florets, 1 cup Green Beans, 1 cup Cabbage, and 2 medium Potatoes on a large platter. Add the 1 cup Bean Sprouts, 0.5 large Cucumber (sliced), and 2 large Hard-boiled Eggs (halved or quartered) to the platter.
7. 7Serve the Gado-Gado. Drizzle the prepared peanut-free sauce generously over the assembled salad. Serve immediately.
