Thai-style Tofu Marinade

Recipe adapted from the Chicago Sun-Times, so probably not the most Thai thing ever.

Ingredients
(quantities approximate for some stuff)
  • 1/4 c. warm water
  • 1 T. sesame oil
  • 1 T. dark soy sauce
  • 1/2 T. brown sugar
  • ~1/2 tsp. Sri Racha sauce
  • ~1/2 tsp. cumin
  • ~1/2 tsp. corriander
  • ~1 clove garlic, chopped
  • ~1 tsp. lemon juice
Methodology

1. Mix everything together.

2. Cut tofu into "steaks" approximately 1/2" thick and put in marinade. Leave in the refrigerator until time to cook.

3. Cook and use in whatever dish. I recommend browning them over high heat in a not-too-oily pan.

Notes

*I liked the tone the sesame oil gave it. Needs to be stronger. 3/7.
