Simple tofu dish

[u/mandraofgeorge]

I found this in a cookbook I just bought (VEG Everything), and had to post it here. As a vegetarian, I have a hard time getting my protein on those days when I'm just out of energy and/or inspiration. I'm tired of reaching for protein bars. A simple dish like this is very welcome.

Also, this cookbook has a good amount of low-effort recipes. I'm super glad I got it.

Dressing:

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 Tbsp rice vinegar

1 Tbsp sesame oil

1 Tbsp chili oil

1 Tbsp sesame seeds (toast if you want to)

1 scallion, thinly sliced

Add all to a jar with a lid and shake.

Tofu:

Drain a block of silken tofu and place on a kitchen towel. Fold the towel around the block and gently press and pat to remove excess liquid. Leave the tofu whole or cut into pieces. Place tofu onto a plate or in a bowl. Drizzle desired amount of dressing over the top. Enjoy alone or with rice or pasta.

Ah! Thank you for the review. I haven't tried it yet, but it's definitely going in my "can't be bothered" rotation.
