Sesame Maple Roasted Tofu Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Toss tofu, onion, canola oil, sesame oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Spread on a large baking sheet and roast until the tofu is lightly golden on top and the onions are browning in spots, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Whisk tahini, soy sauce, maple syrup and vinegar in a small dish until combined. Remove the tofu from the oven, add snap peas and drizzle with the maple sauce; stir to combine. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Return to the oven and continue roasting until the peas are crisp-tender, 8 to 12 minutes more.

Steps:

• Open tofu package and drain off the liquid. Place a few paper towels on a small baking sheet and lay the tofu block on top. Place a few more paper towels on top of the tofu, and then place a heavy cast iron skillet to press out the liquid. Alternatively you can also top with a plate and a few heavy cans to apply weight.
• Allow the tofu to press at room temperature for 30 minutes to ensure that a lot of that excess moisture is removed.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Once the tofu has been fully pressed, remove the skillet and discard the paper towels. Slice the tofu into 1-inch cubes and transfer to a large bowl.
• Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, granulated garlic, onion and chili powder. Gently toss to evenly combine. Transfer the tofu to a well greased baking sheet in a single layer.
• Roast for 15 minutes and then remove from the oven and flip the tofu over. Return to the oven and roast until golden brown and crispy, a further 15 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
