Baked Tofu with black pepper

This American Comfort Stir-Fry leans on black pepper to do the heavy lifting. We bake the Tofu for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.

Baked Tofu with black pepper
Method

How to cook it

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the black pepper elements, and pat the tofu dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the firm tofu and bake until it takes on colour and the edges catch, 4 to 6 minutes.

Stir in the buttermilk and the rest of the black pepper flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the green beans along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
