Spiced Tofu Pilaf

So incredibly flavourful, and can’t believe this is almost a one-pot meal! Tastes like home 🥰

Hi, how can it be sided with, bread or something? Or just alone is intended?

Hi Sarah! This pilaf can be enjoyed on its own or you can pair it with some crusty bread if you'd like. We also love pairing it with a side of carrot raita and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for a zesty touch! 😊

The recipe was easy to follow and the meal cozy and perfect for cold days. I modify my recipe because I can't handle spicy food and did not put chili. Maybe because of this missing ingredient the final meal was bit bland. Is there any alternative I can add next time to get more flavour? :)

Glad you enjoyed the cozy vibes, Anna! If you'd like more flavour without the chili, you can try adding a bit more ginger or some extra dried fenugreek leaves - they add a nice depth without the heat 😊 A squeeze of fresh lemon at the end could also brighten things up!

Oh, thank you! I will try it for sure!

Delicious recipe. The prep took me much more than 15 minutes though, just step 0 and 1 took me 30 minutes and I'm a relatively experienced homecook. Maybe step 0 is not counted in the time? I always feel like that is cheating though, because nobody has "one carrot, diced" lying around the house haha. My tofu was still frozen though, maybe that made the difference, or I didn't have my day.

We added roasted cauliflower to up the veggies a bit, just Spice with some baharat seasoning.

Thanks for your feedback, Alexandra 🤗 Step 0 is included in the estimate, though sometimes the time can vary. We'll keep an eye out for similar reviews, and love the roasted cauliflower and baharat addition!

Loved this!

Lovely 💕

I had to skip the Fenugreek, because I couldn't find it at my grocery store, but this was still really good. I made it a 1-pot meal by cooking the tofu in my Dutch oven, and chopped the veg while that cooked. Then continued as the recipe says. A hit of lemon at the end is a must. Looking forward to trying this again once I have Fenugreek.

We're so glad that the pilaf was enjoyed, Elizabeth, thanks a bunch for sharing your experience with it!

Easy, low effort & tasty dinner recipe!

Delicious and easy to make ! I doubled it and it came out fabulous, will definitely make it again.

I tried it today.... It came out great!! My whole fam loved it! 😍
We can customise it as well... 😁

Super delicious 😋
I was just wondering if the size of the tofu is right 🤔 The recipe says 1 cm cubes, but on the pictures it looks more like 1 inch 🤔 Was delicious either way 😍

Hey Lisa! We personally like it when the cubes are on the smaller side for the crunch, perhaps a tad closer to 1.5 cm but we rounded down for simplicity. A larger size is fine too though 😊

Amazing recipe! Quick, easy and flavorful :)

Making this recipe made my house smell amazing! All the flavours and spices that were involved were perfection! Can't believe I haven't made a pilaf recipe until now. 😅

Aw we love the smell of this one too, Charlotte, I hope you love it! 🤗

So easy to make and delicious 🥰

It means so much, Sonia, thank YOU ☺️

So good and filling! Smells wonderful!

SO delicious, especially topped with a yoghurt dip and some more chili :)

Delicious! It was the perfect amount of spice. Recipe was super easy. I just put the coated tofu in the oven while cooking the pilaf. Timing worked out great.

So happy to hear, Anisha, thank you!

Super tasty! Would recommend to try this out. I swapped the fresh chili for a dried one.

Delish! A perfect summer dinner recipe - fresh and not too heavy
