Black Lime Tofu
Ingredients
- 300g hard/firm tofu, drained
- 1 rounded tsp Australian Black Limes Lime Powder
- 1 pinch salt
- ¼ tsp cracked pepper
- 1 heaped tbsp cornflour
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup salt reduced soy sauce
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 tbsp fresh coriander, roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp spring onions, finely sliced
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
Directions
- Wrap the tofu in several layers of paper towel and gently press to absorb all the moisture. Do this a couple of times if necessary.
- Slice the tofu into triangles about 1cm thick then gently pat dry with paper towels again.
- On a plate mix half of the lime powder with salt, pepper and cornflour. Coat each side of the tofu with this floury mix.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan and once hot gently add the tofu. Fry tofu on a medium-high heat on both sides until browned, the outside of the tofu should become slightly crunchy.
- Take the tofu out of the pan and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
- In a fresh large pan pour in the soy sauce and honey (or maple syrup).
- Heat the pan and gently simmer until the mixture has reduced and become thick and sticky.
- Add the tofu to the pan and lightly coat it with the sticky mixture. Put the tofu on a plate and garnish with a sprinkle of coriander, spring onions and sesame seeds.
- Spoon on extra sauce from the pan if you like. Serve immediately.
