This maple hoisin tofu is one of those recipes that just ticks every box. It's quick, affordable, high-protein, and packed with flavour.
If you’ve ever struggled to make tofu taste good, this is a great place to start. The tofu gets crispy on the outside, then tossed through a sticky maple hoisin sauce that’s the perfect balance of sweet and savoury.
It’s the kind of meal that feels like takeaway… but made at home in just 20 minutes.
Perfect for busy weeknights, meal prep, or when you just need a reliable vegan dinner that everyone will actually enjoy.
Ingredients (Serves 4)
• 450g firm tofu (cubed)
