About

These flavorful broccoli steaks are topped with pan fried curried tofu and onion, then baked until tender and caramelized.

These make a great lunch option served with salad or curried slaw, or a dinner with coconut cauliflower rice.

Ingredients

  • 3 ½ ounce tofu
  • 1 ½ tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon cumin, seed
  • ⅓ medium – stalk – 7 1/2" to 8" long broccoli
  • ¼ medium – 2 1/2" diameter red onion
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt, sea salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Slice the broccoli into 2 ‘steaks’, roughly a half inch thick. Add the broccoli steaks to a pan of boiling water and simmer for 4-5 minutes until tender. Remove the broccoli from the pan and pat dry.
  2. Whilst the broccoli is cooking, heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over a low/medium heat. Thinly slice the onions and add to the pan along with the cumin seeds. Cook gently for a minute or two until the onions are tender.
  3. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  4. Dice the tofu into half inch chunks and add to the pan, along with the curry powder and remaining oil. Stir well to combine. Increase the heat a little and cook for 4-5 minutes to brown the tofu.
  5. Divide the tofu and onion between the two broccoli steaks, drizzling over any remaining curry oils from the pan.
  6. Arrange the broccoli steaks on an oven tray and bake 10-12 minutes until the tofu and onions are golden and starting to crisp.
