Ingredients

How to make it

  • Place the tofu blocks on a large plate, put a cutting board on top so that it covers the blocks utterly, and put a stack of dishes or other heavy items on top, and leave 30 minutes, to drain the water from the tofu. Don't skip or your tofu will broil poorly.
  • Drain the tofu and cube into 1 inch pieces, and place in a bowl
  • Mix the yoghurt, coriander, garam masala and salt, and add to cubed up tofu.
  • Mix gently to coat the cubes, then let them marinate for at least 2 hours in the fridge.
  • Heat oven to 475F.
  • Once ready, skewer the tofu, line a baking sheet with aluminium foil, and lay the brochettes on top. Save the marinade and any tofu that you cannot skewer.
  • Bake tofu brochettes for 15-20 minutes, turning over once.
  • Set the oven to broil, and broil the brochettes until you have some visible browning. Keep an eye on them!
  • In the meantime, mince the onion and fry it slowly in a bit of oil.
  • Add curry powder, minced garlic, pinches of allspice and smoky paprika, and grated ginger.
  • Cook 2 minutes or until fragrant, and then add tomato sauce.
  • Stir, and then taste and adjust salt and sugar balance of your tomato sauce.
  • Remove the tofu cubes from the brochettes, and stir them in with any non baked tofu and whatever is left of the marinade.
  • Stir carefully and cook 5 minutes on medium heat.
  • Before serving, stir in 1 cup of yoghurt (or heavy cream), but do not cook anymore. Sauce will be creamy pink.
  • Serve with basmati rice, a colourful steamed vegetable, and some chutneys on the side.

    I'm going to give my vegan son a copy of this. He'll love this and I may also get to try it, if I'm hanging around at the right time. I'm usually not too bad at getting that right, at least. Thanks.
