Instructions
Make the Thai Tofu Satay Skewers
- Press the tofu to squeeze out excess water. Cut the tofu into small square cubes, roughly the same size. Wash the mushroom and cut into similar sizes with the tofu.
- Soak your skewers in cold water for about 10 minutes. This is to prevent the skewers from burning.
- In a bowl, combine the ingredients to make the satay marinade and mix well. Coat the tofu cubes with the marinade sauce and let them sit about 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F).
- Place the tofu cubes and mushroom on the skewers. I use 4 pieces for each skewers.
- Bake the skewers in the oven for 20-25 minutes.
Make the Thai Peanut sauce
- Meanwhile, make the peanut sauce by heating up the ingredients in a pot. Simmer on low heat until the sauce thickens.
- After the skewers are baked, serve on a plate with rice, the peanut sauce and garnish with green onion or coriander and sesame seeds.
