Tofu Peanut Crunch Salad

Ingredients

• 250 g extra-firm tofu
• 150 g cabbage
• 1 large carrot
• 1/2 large cucumber
• 100 g edamame
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp peanut butter
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp lime juice
• 1 tbsp crushed peanuts
• 2 tbsp chopped cilantro

Method

1. Step 1

   Press the 250 g extra-firm tofu for 10 minutes, then cut it into bite-sized cubes.

2. Step 2

   Season the extra-firm tofu with 1 tsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, then cook it in a hot pan until browned and cooked through. Let it rest while you build the salad.

3. Step 3

   Shred the cabbage (150 g), cut the carrot into matchsticks (1 large), dice the cucumber (1/2 large), and thaw the edamame (100 g).

4. Step 4

   In a jar or bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the peanut lime dressing until smooth and glossy.

5. Step 5

   Add the greens and prepared vegetables to a large bowl and toss lightly with half of the dressing.

6. Step 6

   Slice or flake the cooked extra-firm tofu and place it on top of the salad. Add any warm ingredients last so the greens stay fresh.

7. Step 7

   Spoon over the remaining dressing, add crushed peanuts and cilantro, and serve right away.
