|
Freeze 1 pound of firm tofu for at least several days, thaw, squeeze
out and cut into 1-inch cubes. Place tofu in a large baking dish.
Saute together until onions are transparent:
2 tablespoons oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup coarsely chopped peanuts
6 cloves garlic, crushed
Stir in:
1 6-oz. can tomato paste
1/3 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup hot water
1/4 cup sesame oil
1/4 cup apple juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoons fresh grated ginger root
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon garlic/pepper
Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Pour one cup
of sauce over tofu cubes and squeeze in well (reserving the remaining
sauce).
Marinate for at least one hour, turing the tofu .
Bake tofu at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. Either containerize and
refrigerate the tofu for later consumption or serve it over rice
topped with remaining sauce. The peanut sauce can be thinned out and
used as a sauce on other veggies in its own right.

Even my husband loved it., March 16, 2004 - 10:11 AM
Reviewer: Lynn from Plainfield, CT USA
This recipe was very easy to prepare and my husband, who usually won't eat tofu, loved it! He even requested that I make it again for him this week. He loves spicy foods and this met with his approval. Has a little bite, so adjust spices if needed.
