Ingredients

  • 1 block tofu (200g)
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup light soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp harissa paste sub 2 tsp chili flakes
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar
  • 2 tbsp dairy-free butter

Instructions

  • Drain excess water from your tofu and score it like how you would do ham, in a criss cross pattern.
  • Combine your marinade ingredients: soy sauce, orange juice and harissa paste in a container.
  • Place your tofu in the container and spoon over the marinade so it's completely coated in the sauce. Refrigerate for 3 hours to overnight.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 180C.
  • Place the tofu on a baking tray and spoon over some sauce over the tofu to fully coat it. Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Prepare the glaze by adding vegan butter, coconut sugar, maple syrup and ground cloves to a pan. Mix until well combined and the mixture thickens.
  • Take out from the oven, and immediately brush the glaze on the tofu. Grill or broil for 5-15 minutes depending on the strength of your oven. Save some glaze for the final touch.
  • Take out from the oven, and brush more glaze on the tofu. Serve with orange slices and herbs. Slice and enjoy!
