Serves 2 · Prep 20 min · Cook 15 min · Extra waiting 20 min

Ingredients

  • 14.1 oz (400 g) extra-firm tofu, drained
  • 10.6 oz (300 g) baby bok choy, halved lengthwise
  • 0.8 US fl oz (25 ml) light soy sauce
  • 0.4 oz (10 g) ginger, grated
  • 0.7 US fl oz (20 ml) rice vinegar
  • 1.7 tsp (12 g) honey
  • 3.1 tsp (14 g) neutral oil
  • 0.4 oz (10 g) sesame seeds
  • 0.7 oz (20 g) scallions, chopped

Method

  1. Press tofu between clean towels under a light weight for 20 minutes, additional to preparation time. Cut into six thick slabs.
  2. Mix soy sauce, ginger, vinegar and honey. Divide into a brushing portion and a serving portion. Coat tofu and bok choy with oil.
  3. Heat a clean, well-oiled grill to medium-high. Grill tofu for 4–5 minutes per side, brushing near the end. Grill bok choy for 3–4 minutes per side until tender and lightly charred.
  4. Serve three tofu slabs per person with bok choy, reserved glaze, sesame seeds and scallions.

Cook’s note: Honey makes this vegetarian rather than vegan. Use extra-firm tofu and do not turn it before a crust forms.

Allergens: Soy, sesame and wheat in soy sauce.
