Roasted Tofu with olive and tomato

This Mediterranean Dip leans on olive and tomato to do the heavy lifting. We roast the Tofu for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.

Method

How to cook it

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the olive and tomato 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 roast until it takes on colour and the edges catch, 4 to 6 minutes.

Stir in the chickpeas and the rest of the olive and tomato flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the courgette along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

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