Thai Coconut Tofu Recipe
Thai Coconut Tofu Recipe. I've featured this nutty coconut tofu recipe in my "Love it or hate it" recipe series, because if you read the reviews, that seems to be the general response. Obviously, I love it! The salty and savory peanut sauce just melds together with the tofu so well, but I suppose tastes differ. What do you think?Looking for easy tofu recipes? Here is a complete list of tofu recipes.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 package firm or extra-firm tofu, well pressed
  • 6 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced or grated
  • 4 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup coconut flakes

Preparation:

Slice tofu into rectangles about 3/4 inch thick.

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the tofu and green onions in the olive oil and sesame oil for 2 to 3 minutes.

Add remaining ingredients, except coconut and cook, stirring gently, for another minute, until ingredients are incorporated.

Gently toss with coconut flakes and serve immediately.
