Preparation and cooking times
- Cut the block of tofu into long slices, approx 15mm x 25mm x 100mm, and insert a skewer into each along the long length, and lay in a dish.
- Drizzle sesame oil and and soy sauce over the tofu skewers, and sprinkle over lemon grass and chopped chilli. Marinade for an hour, turning and basting occasionally.
- Meanwhile, make the satay sauce. Fry finely chopped onion for a couple of minutes in the olive oil, then add finely chopped garlic for another minute.
- Add the peanut butter, coconut milk, sugar and soy sauce, then stir until thickened.
- Place the skewers under a hot grill on a baking sheet, and cook for a couple of minutes, or until browned. Turn and cook the other side.
- Re-warm the satay sauce if necessary - add a little water or some of the marinade if it has become too thick. Serve in a small dish on each plate with the tofu skewers.
