One pot tofu satay

won't you 'satay' with me?

Picture

One Pot Wonder:
​

As you all know, I cook authentic Vegan Thai Food on a regular basis; however, this dish was created differently. I basically used the ingredients I could find in the kitchen. So, this version of my Vegan satay wouldn't be considered authentic Thai, but it is an original. Plus the dish turned out really good and super easy to make! Technically, you'd need one pot and a grilling pan, but you know. If you don't want those lovely grill marks- you can always just skip. These vegan satay skewers are perfect for everything: from parties to a night with Netflix.

Part 1: The making of 'Satay'

You will need ingredients as followed:

Part 1: The making of “Satay”

250 ml coconut milk
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
2 teaspoon curry powder
300 g extra firm tofu, cut into pieces like so
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions:

1. Add coconut milk into a pot/ sauce pan and bring to a boil
2. Stir in turmeric powder, curry powder, salt, and brown sugar
3. Add tofu pieces into the pot and leave to simmer,
​occasionally flip tofu pieces to even out the colour.
4. Once the tofu has absorbed the yellow colour, turn off the heat.
5. GENTLY remove tofu pieces from the pot and rest them on a cooling rack.

Part 2: The Boss of all Sauces

You'll need:

2 tablespoon toasted crushed peanuts
1 tablespoon tamarind paste
2 tablespoon palm sugar
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1 small pinch of salt
12 bamboo skewers

1. Once the tofu pieces have cooled down, pierce a bamboo skewer through as appeared in the finished photo, make sure each tofu piece is tightly snugged to the skewer so it doesn't fall off when we grill it on a grilling pan

2. Put the pot back on medium high heat, add tamarind paste, palm sugar, and brown sugar, stir occasionally (be careful not the burn the bottom of the pan/ pot)

3. Simmer until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency

4. Remove from heat and add crushed peanuts and stir
or pour the sauce in a dipping bowl and sprinkle peanuts on top

5. Put a grilling pan on high heat, prepare a tong to help flip tofu over

6. Make sure the pan is sizzling hot before adding a skewered tofu satay

7. Sear each side of the tofu and remove from pan. Serve hot with Satay Sauce
