Tofu is good!: the proof is in caramelised tofu

After last post, I thought I'd better make up with my vegetarian friends and prove that I am not carnivore, but omnivore indeed. I am very food curious and I tend to try anything and everything that's new to me, which mean I have experimented with a lot of commonly thought vegetarian ingredients. I have learnt to apreciate tofu in all its shapes and forms, and when I try to convince friends that yes tofu is brilliant, I tend to cook it for them this way first, as it seems that it is the easiest acquaintance. I don't go for the delicate tofu, which they usually find too bland....

Here's a way of cooking tofu that will make it more attractive for those who usually don't like it!

1 - Cut a bloc of fresh tofu in medium sized cubes.

2 - Heat up some sesame oil and 2 or 3 teaspoons of soy sauce (or replacement product for vegans)

3- Throw the cubes in the pan and cook them until they are caramelised.

That's too easy and only 5 min in total. Now we're talking real fast food!

You can use it hot in salads, or in dishes instead of meat. They can make great nibbles too.
