A favourite plant based appetiser in my kitchen, these skewers certainly redefine what a plant-based starter is normally thought to be! A crispy skewer and a moreish dipping sauce that you won’t be able to get enough of! These are also great on the BBQ.

1 Tbsphoney

Instructions

Step 1

Slice the tofu into long rectangles, about 2cm thick. Carefully skewer these onto skewers, pushing them all the way up but stopping just before it breaks through.

Step 2

Place skewers into a tray and pour over tamari to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by combining all ingredients in a small bowl, along with 1 tbsp (10ml) of water and set aside.

Step 4

To cook the tofu, carefully place the coconut oil or ghee in a large pan on a high heat. You want to bring the oil up to a high temperature. You can test this by splashing a drop of water into the pan. You want to hear a sizzle.

Step 5

Carefully, using tongs, place the tofu skewers in the pan and cook on each side for about 5 minutes until nice and crispy. Pour over any remaining tamari.

Step 6

Serve with cucumber, chopped mint, sesame seeds and satay dipping sauce.
