Healthy Roasted Tofu And Winter Vegetables Recipe

Posted on September 13, 2008 by healthy-chef

Try this winter warmer instead of the usual meaty stew.

Ingredients (Serves 4)

• 4 tbsp soy sauce
• 4 tbsp medium sherry
• 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 2 x 285 g packets of firm tofu, drained and cut into cubes
• 350 g parsnips, peeled and chopped into chunks
• 350 g carrots, peeled and roughly chopped
• 350 g red onions, peeled and cut into quarters
• 2 medium courgettes, diced
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• freshly ground pepper

1. Mix together the soy sauce, sherry, white wine vinegar and garlic cloves to make a marinade. Put the tofu in a shallow bowl and pour over the marinade mixture. Stir and leave for 2 hours.
2. Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F. Place all the vegetables and the tofu cubes in a shallow ovenproof dish, making sure that they are well spread out. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with a little freshly ground black pepper. Cook in the oven for about 35 minutes or until golden brown.
3. Halfway through the cooking time, turn the vegetable and tofu mix with a spoon to ensure all the ingredients are evenly browned. Serve immediately.
