Pan-Fried Maple-Tamari-Sriracha Tofu

June 30, 2018 by Allison 1 Comment

IMG_9064

This tofu is guaranteed to turn any tofu hater into a lover! Nobody can resist the sweet, salty, and mildly spicy flavour of this dish. It is also incredibly versatile, and works well as a filling in wraps, a topping for bowls, and on its own as a tasty, protein-rich snack!

VEGAN
Gluten-Free

Servings: 4
Time: 30 minutes marinating + 15 minutes cooking

3 tbsp tamari
2 tbsp pure maple syrup
2 tbsp sriracha (I like Simply Natural brand organic sriracha)
1 block (350 g) extra firm organic tofu, diced into 1-inch cubes
1 tbsp virgin coconut oil

Directions: 

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together tamari, maple syrup, and sriracha.
  2. Add tofu and toss to combine.
  3. Allow tofu to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours, if possible.
  4. In a large skillet (preferably cast iron), heat coconut oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu.
  5. Cook tofu for about five minutes, then carefully flip and cook for five minutes on the other side.
  6. Continue cooking the tofu until most of the marinade has caramelized and the tofu itself is crispy.
  7. Remove from heat and enjoy in wraps, on bowls, or as part of a plate with roasted sweet potato, greens, and sauce. The sky really is the limit with this tofu.

Whenever I set out to develop a burger recipe, goal number one is to create something that satisfies. It doesn't necessarily need to mimic meat in flavour or texture, but it does need to have plenty of protein and flavour. To that end, my newest veggie burger recipe- these Tempeh, Quinoa, and Sweet Potato Burgers- is quite possibly my best one yet. A hearty base of tempeh, quinoa, and sweet potato is flavoured up with tamari, Dijon, barbecue sauce, herbs and spices, toasted sesame oil, and pecans. The resulting burger is packed with so much heft and protein that even my 👱🏼recipe tester (with one of the heartiest appetites I've ever witnessed, aside from my own 😆🤦🏼‍♀️) was satisfied! 
All the details and the recipe are now on the blog: upbeetkitchen.com! 
Happy noshing! 😋

Pumpkin seed butter is an excellent source of zinc, iron, and magnesium, as well as protein (especially the amino acid L-Arginine, which enhances blood flow and can improve athletic performance). Pumpkin seed butter is the star of the show in my latest recipe, pumpkin seed butter and pumpkin spice chocolate cups! If you're looking for a healthy no-bake snack/treat, look no further than these tasty morsels. The new recipe is on the blog now- upbeetkitchen.com, or via the link in my bio! 🎃 ✨ .

Did you know that beets are believed to both build and cleanse the blood in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine, and that they may enhance athletic performance by boosting nitric oxide production, which relaxes the blood vessels and allows blood to be pumped more efficiently through the body? 
Even if you think you don't like beets, I encourage you to give them a chance in this recipe. It just might change your mind. 
The new recipe is up on the blog now: upbeetkitchen.com, or via the link in my bio. Hope you enjoy! 🤗

My version uses whole grain flour tortillas stuffed with spice-infused lentils and roasted butternut squash. I added a cilantro lime cashew cream for dipping, too! ☺️✨ We like them so much that we're making them for dinner again tonight. If you want to do the same, head over to upbeetkitchen.com for the brand new recipe. Enjoy! 🤗
