Tofu Kebabs

Tofu Kebabs: Colourful and Flavourful

Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 8 skewers
• 4 x 150g firm tofu, cut into cubes (females)
• 4 x 250g firm tofu, cut into cubes (males)
• 1 large green pepper, seeded and cut into cubes
• 2 small zucchini, sliced
• 4 patty pan squash (button squash), halved
• 100g button mushrooms, halved
• 2 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons grated ginger
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 1 small chilli, chopped finely

Directions

1. Thread the tofu and vegetables alternately onto the skewers. Lay kebabs in a large baking dish in a single layer.
2. Combine the tamari or soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and chilli in a small bowl to make a paste. Pour over the kebabs and set aside for 30 minutes to allow flavours to develop.
3. Cook kebabs on a hot braai or grill plate, basting as they cook, for 10-15 minutes until tofu is browned.

Serving suggestion: Serve with a side salad.
