Tofu Indonesian Style

Tofu Indonesian Style

I’m going to start posting some of the family favorite recipes here. This one came from somewhere, back in my FidoNet days, and we must have it 3-4 times a month, it’s so good. It’s a bit different from the original, but still really easy and good.

Tofu Indonesian Style

1/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, chopped
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
3 scallions, sliced
1 pound firm tofu, cubed

Process the peanut butter, soy sauce, water, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, vinegar, and sugar in a small food proccessor or blender.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spoon the liquid mixture into an 8×8 pan. Put the tofu cubes in, and mix gently to cover. Sprinkle scallions and sesame seeds over the top.

Bake tofu about 25 minutes, until hot in the center. Serve over rice or chinese noodles and spoon additional sauce over the top.
