Ingredients
 
 

  • 200 g curly kale - chopped
  • 1 kg butternut squash
  • 370 g firm tofu
  • 2 Tbsp peanut butter
  • 4 Tbsp of soy sauce
  • 3 Tbsp cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 6 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large garlic clove - crushed
  • 2 handful of ground roasted peanuts
  • salt & pepper

Instructions
 

  • Make the tofu marinade by mixing in a bowl 2 tbsp peanut butter, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 3 tbsp cider vinegar, 1 tsp honey and some pepper. Mix well.
  • Drain the tofu and cut in 1 cm dice. Place in a dish and pour marinade over it.
  • Cover with cling film and let the tofu marinate for at least 1/2h or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
  • Peel and remove the seeds of the butternut squash. Cut in 1 cm dice. Place in a roasting dish with 2 tbsp of olive oil. Toss until butternut squash is coated all over. Cook for 30-40 mins until tender and lightly browned.
  • Place marinated tofu on a baking sheet making sure the tofu dices are well spread out so they do not touch each other.
  • Place the tofu in the oven 10 mins after the butternut squash has gone in.
  • Make the dressing by mixing together 4 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 large garlic clove crushed and 1 tsp of honey.
  • Place the washed kale in a salad bowl. Toss dressing over it.
  • Once the butternut squash and tofu are cooked, toss them gently in the kale salad. Add 1 to 2 tbsp of ground peanuts on top. Season to taste, keeping in mind that the soy sauce and peanuts already contain salt.
