Ingredients
Method
Tofu
- Put wine, soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil, and crushed garlic in a container with an airtight lid. Add the tofu slices, close the box and refrigerate for several hours, preferably overnight. Occasionally turn the container over to make sure all the tofu slices will absorb the marinade.
- Prepare the sauce: Take the tofu slices out of the box, place them on a plate, and set them aside. Transfer the marinade sauce to a small saucepan or cauldron; Cook-reduce over medium-high heat until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
caramelized Onions and Cashews
- Heat oil in a pan, add the onion and sugar, and fry while stirring until the onion begins to brown. Add the cashews and continue frying until the onions and cashews are nicely browned. Remove from the heat and add a clove of crushed garlic; Stir well.
For Serving
- Heat a griddle pan brushed with oil; Sear the tofu slices on both sides until you get burn marks.
- Put a portion of mashed potatoes (or white rice) in a serving dish. Sprinkle generously with the caramelized onions and cashews. Place tofu slices on top, drizzle wine sauce over the tofu and mashed potatoes; Serve warm.
Notes
- If you add a clove of crushed garlic to the caramelized onion (after removing from heat), you get a surprise: the clove of garlic changes its color to greenish-turquoise!
