Peanut Marinated Tofu
Peanut butter isn't just for toast! Due to its fat content, it's a perfect marinade base that clings to tofu during frying, forming a caramelised, nutty crust. Lime and ginger ensure it's not too rich.

Instructions
1
✓
Press tofu and dice it.
Tip: Repetition is the mother of learning: wet tofu won't brown!
2
✓
Mix marinade ingredients (peanut butter, soy, ginger, lime, honey, oil). If too thick, loosen with a little water.
Tip: Marinade must be a thick cream to stick to tofu.
3
✓
Toss tofu in, let stand 20 minutes.
Tip: Tofu's porous structure absorbs flavours.
4
✓
Fry in pan over medium heat until golden brown. Careful, peanut butter and honey sugar content burns fast!
