Answers:
You can make a curry flavored baked tofu!.
All you have to do is:
-Drain the tofu and wrap in towels or paper towels
-Rest a weight of some sort on top (large book, cutting board and a couple cans, etc!.) and let sit to press for around 30 minutes!.
-Make marinade (recipe below) in a bowl
-Slice tofu into long thin pieces (about 8 pieces)
-Place tofu slices in marinade and let sit for an hour, flipping after 30 minutes
-Bake on a lightly greased sheet at 450 deg!. F for about 20 minutes; flip, and bake another 12-15 minutes or to your preferred taste (I like it best when the edges get a little burnt)
If you want it chewier, put under the broiler for a few minutes!.
Curry marinade:
1/2 cup veg broth
3 TBS rice vinegar
2-3 TBS soy sauce
2 TBS olive oil
1/4 cup curry powder
1 tsp!. cumin seeds
1 tsp!. onion powder
Whisk all ingredients until mixed and add tofu!.
Enjoy!. This is the same way I make tofu bacon; with the tofu bacon I just cook it longer until dry and semi-burnt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
