Ingredients:
- 300 g firm tofu, cubed into 16 pieces
- 8 bamboo skewers
- 8 yellow baby squash, halved
- 1 large red capsicum, cubed to match size of tofu
- 2 zucchinis, sliced to form 16 rings and match size of tofu
- 1 large Spanish onion, sliced into 6 wedges
- Extra virgin olive oil spray
Marinade
- 1 tbsp miso paste
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Juice of 2 limes (about ¼ cup)
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
Method:
- Add the marinade ingredients to a small jar and shake vigorously to combine. Check to ensure miso paste is dissolved.
- Place tofu in a glass dish. Pour over the marinade, then cover with lid and refrigerate for 1 hour, turning and shaking a few times.
- Meanwhile, soak the bamboo skewers in water for 20 minutes to prevent them burning while cooking.
- Remove skewers from the water and thread each with the tofu and vegetables in an alternating fashion (eg: squash, capsicum, tofu, zucchini and onion, then repeat), ensuring you don’t overpack the skewers.
- Preheat a BBQ and spray with extra virgin olive oil. Place the skewers on the heat and cook on medium-high for about 5 minutes on each side. Using the leftover marinade, baste the skewers regularly while cooking. Serve immediately on a bed of cous cous and drizzle with leftover marinade. A satay sauce topping is also delicious.
TIP: Can be cooked in the oven if preferred. Bake on lined tray at 180˚C for 45 minutes, turning once, until slightly browned. Baste well.
