Background

I made these spiced tofu and veggie skewers in an air fryer, but you can use a grill or griddle pan if preferred. It only takes 10 minutes to cook, so it’s a quick and easy dish, perfect for midweek suppers. Serve them in a flatbread or wrap with a nice sauce and some crispy salad.

The Recipe

Ingredients

150g hard tofu
2 banana shallots (Echalion)
½ red pepper
For the marinade:
2 Tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
¼ tsp cayenne
1 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

1. Mix the marinade in a mixing bowl.
2. Cut the tofu into 2cm cubes, the red pepper, courgette into 2cm pieces.
3. Peel the shallot and cut it into 3 or 4 wedges.
4. Add these to the bowl and toss gently.
5. Marinate for 10 minutes or longer if time allows.
6. Thread 4 skewers with the marinated veggies and tofu.
7. Put them on the rack in the air fryer, then set the machine to 10-15 minutes. Cook them until tender and golden-brown. Rotate them, if possible, at least once. If you don’t have an air fryer, put the skewers under the grill for 10 to 12 minutes or grill them in a griddle pan.
8. Serve lukewarm.
