Ingredients

• 1 14 oz block extra firm tofu, drained
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 large garlic clove, minced
• 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp cardamom
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1/4-1/2 tsp cayenne
• 3/4 tsp salt
• Pita, rice, tomato cucumber salad and/or pickled onion for serving (optional)

For the Tahini Yogurt Sauce

• 1 cup unsweetened coconut yogurt (or Greek yogurt)
• 2 tbsp tahini
• 1 tbsp lemon zest
• Salt to taste

Instructions

1. Press the tofu for at least 30 minutes to remove excess moisture.
2. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, maple syrup, spices and salt. Cut the tofu into large cubes and place in a shallow container. Pour over the marinade and make sure all the cubes are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
3. Preheat the grill to medium high heat and soak a few wooden skewers in water (if using).
4. Thread the cubes of tofu onto the skewers. Place directly on the grill or ideally a grill basket/tray, just in case the pieces fall off while turning. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, until lightly charred and crispy.
5. Serve fresh off the grill with tahini yogurt sauce, warm pita and a tomato cucumber salad if desired.
