For the tofu
- 400 g firm tofu cubed
- 3 tsp cornflour
- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
For the jerk veggies
- 1 small head of broccoli broken into florets
- 1 courgette sliced chunky
- 200 g fresh pineapple cubed
- 1 Romano pepper sliced
- 1 red onion sliced thinly
- 4 garlic cloves crushed
- 2 big handful of fresh baby spinach
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1-2 tsp Jorvik Jerkish Sauce
- 1-2 tsp Jorvik Habanero Sauce
- salt and pepper to taste
Drain the tofu, mix the cornflour, the garlic granules and the salt, cube the tofu. Toss the tofu pieces in the spiced cornflour to coat all over. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Fry the tofu for 2-4 mins on each side until golden and crunchy. Cook the basmati rice or any other rice of your choice.
At the same time in a wok pan prepare the jerked veggies.Heat the oil and add the onions first and when they are soft and golden add the sauces. Add 1 tsp for less hot taste but you can add more. Then add the broccoli, sliced peppers, the courgette and pineapple. Add a splash of water if needed (if it gets too sticky), a little salt and pepper too. Simmer for about 20 minutes. When the veggies are al dente, add the spinach too and cook for another 2 minutes. Serve immediately, heaping the veggies onto a bowl rice and topping with the tofu pieces. You can sprinkle with some more sauce when serving.
