I sometimes feel grateful that we are leading a vegan lifestyle at a time when alternatives are readily available, and communities such as Vegan Outreach India exist where it’s really easy to get/share amazing recipes. We don’t have to miss out on anything. Here is one of my hit tofu recipes, an alternative to Rawa fish fry.
Ingredients:
- 250 gms Tofu
- 1 Seaweed sheet (optional)
- 5 gms / 1 teaspoon salt
- 2.5 gms / 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
- 10 gms / 2 teaspoon lime juice
- 2.5 gms / 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder
- 1tbsp or 1 seaweed sheet or flakes (optional)
- 30 gms / 2 tablespoons millet rawa / rawa
- Oil for grilling & marinating (optional)
Method:
Chop the tofu into long & broad skewer style shapes & pierce the tofu with a fork. Marinate the tofu in red chili powder, turmeric, salt, lime juice & oil. It’s best to marinate tofu overnight or at least for an hour. You can also marinate the tofu with seaweed or coat the edges with seaweed.
Next, coat the marinated tofu in Rawa (semolina) of your choice and pan fry. Dish out the hot crispy tofu and spritz with some fresh lime juice and coriander. Enjoy hot with some Millet Puliyogare & mock-meat Chettinad Masala.
Once well-done, drizzle it with lime juice while still hot. Enjoy!
