Our tip
For serious flavour, prepare and marinate your tofu overnight!
Method:
Prepare your Cauldron Authentic Tofu block by draining, then pressing for 20 minutes. Once ready, cut into 2cm squares.
Mix the yoghurt, tomato puree, lemon juice and garlic in a bowl. Add the turmeric, cumin, black pepper, salt, cayenne pepper and paprika and stir until combined. Add the tofu and stir to combine. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the harissa sauce by combining the ingredients in a bowl and seasoning to taste. Cover until required.
Brush a griddle pan with 1 tbsp olive oil and heat on medium - high. Place the red onion, red & yellow peppers on the griddle and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until even griddle marks appear. Remove from the pan and repeat this process with the prepared tofu.
Divide the griddled tofu and vegetables between four plates and serve with the harissa dressing and your choice of sides.
