Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring crispy, seasoned tofu paired with fluffy herbed couscous and a medley of perfectly roasted vegetables. This meal offers an exciting interplay of textures and fresh flavors that deliver both satisfaction and balanced nutrition.
INGREDIENTS
320 grams firm tofu
1/4 cup dry couscous (approx. 44g)
1/2 medium red bell pepper
1/2 medium zucchini
1/4 medium red onion
1 tsp olive oil
2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut it into cubes.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss the chopped bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them onto a baking sheet. Roast for about 20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, cook the couscous: Bring water to a boil (use a 1:1 ratio with couscous), remove from heat, stir in couscous, cover, and let it stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and mix in the chopped herbs and lemon juice.
For the tofu, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes with a teaspoon of olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook until all sides are golden and crispy, about 6-8 minutes.
Assemble the dish by placing a bed of herbed couscous on the plate, topping it with crispy tofu and a generous serving of roasted vegetables. Serve warm.
