Seared Tofu and Edamame Salad with Crunchy Vegetables and Lemon-Tahini Dressing
Pan-seared tofu and edamame tossed with shredded cabbage and carrots, finished with a drizzle of creamy lemon-tahini dressing.
INGREDIENTS
180g Extra Firm Tofu
120g Shelled Edamame
1 tbsp Tahini
1/2 tsp Sesame Oil
1/2 cup Shredded Red Cabbage
1/2 cup Shredded Carrots
1/2 cup Sliced Cucumber
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Tamari
PREPARATION
Press the extra firm tofu with a heavy object for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into bite-sized cubes.
Heat the sesame oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the tofu cubes for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until all sides are golden and crisp.
Steam the shelled edamame for 3-5 minutes or thaw completely if using pre-cooked frozen edamame.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, and tamari until the dressing reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
Prepare the vegetables by shredding the cabbage and carrots and thinly slicing the cucumber into half-moons.
In a large salad bowl, combine the warm seared tofu, edamame, cabbage, carrots, and cucumber.
Drizzle the lemon-tahini dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly to coat all ingredients before serving.
