Tofu Marinated In Chilli Soy Sauce

This vegan recipe is super easy to follow and gives your tofu amazing flavour. I'm not a massive fan of tofu so whenever I decide to cook with it I always marinate it and cook it in a sauce to amp up the flavour.

1. Start combining all of your ingredients for the marinade together and set aside once you have done this.

2. Cut up your tofu into small pieces and place into a bowl.

3. Pour your marinade over the tofu and cover with cling film

4. Set aside for at least 30 minutes.

5. Meanwhile start to prepare your rice.1 cup of rice, 2 1/2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Once boiled reduce to a simmer and stir the rice occasionally so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
