INGREDIENTS
250g extra firm tofu
3/4 cup cooked lentils (~150g)
1 cup broccoli (~156g)
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
Salt & pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut into bite-size cubes.
Lightly coat the tofu cubes with cornstarch, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the tofu cubes until they turn golden and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
While the tofu cooks, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss broccoli florets with a little salt and pepper, and if desired, a light spray of olive oil, then spread on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Warm the cooked lentils in a small saucepan or microwave. Season lightly with salt and pepper if needed.
Assemble the bowl by placing the warm lentils as a base, topping with crispy tofu and roasted broccoli.
Sprinkle nutritional yeast over the bowl for a savory, umami finish, and serve immediately.
