I came up with this the other day when thinking how I can do something with the tofu and keep it tasty, low carb and a hint of Indian. So I came up with this recipe, the sauce and the side Soy Puffs. When immediately served the tofu has a crispy crust and soft center. Read more Leftovers may be gently reheated in the micro and although not crispy- just as declicious. Serve with an Indian style salad, Indian bread and you have a great vegetarian meal . Hope you try and enjoy it! See less
