Crispy Tofu with Hearty Lemon-Herb Bean Salad
Enjoy a vibrant, plant-based meal featuring crispy, golden-brown tofu paired with a zesty, herb-infused bean salad. The rich textures of the tofu contrast beautifully with the fresh crunch of bell pepper and red onion, all enveloped in a refreshing lemon dressing that brings out the natural flavors of the beans and herbs.
INGREDIENTS
200g Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 cup Mixed Beans (canned, low sodium)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 small Red Onion
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
2 tbsp Fresh Basil
1 tbsp Fresh Dill
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
2 tsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess water. Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes.
Lightly coat the tofu cubes in cornstarch, ensuring each piece is evenly dusted.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Sauté the tofu cubes until they are golden and crispy on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the mixed beans, diced red bell pepper, and thinly sliced red onion.
Add chopped fresh parsley, basil, and dill to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the bean mixture and gently toss to combine.
Serve the crispy tofu on top of or alongside the hearty lemon-herb bean salad, and enjoy.
