INGREDIENTS
200g Extra Firm Tofu
100g Chickpeas (canned, drained)
75g Shelled Edamame
30g Spinach
45g Shredded Carrots
1 tbsp Tahini
1 tsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Cornstarch (optional)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into bite-sized cubes. Toss the tofu cubes with salt, pepper, and, if using, a light dusting of cornstarch to help crisp the exterior.
Spread the tofu on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until edges are golden and crispy.
Meanwhile, drain and rinse the chickpeas. For extra crispiness, you can toss them in a little salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, then roast them in the oven on a separate tray for about 20 minutes.
Assemble the buddha bowl by placing a base of fresh spinach and shredded carrots in a bowl. Add the baked tofu, roasted chickpeas, and shelled edamame.
Prepare the tahini sauce by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, and a tablespoon of water to thin it out. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Drizzle the tahini sauce over the bowl, toss gently to combine all the flavors, and serve immediately.
