1 tbsp olive oil
450g firm tofu
cut into small cubes
4 Little Gem lettuces
160g carrots
thinly sliced
4 spring onions
thinly sliced
160g radishes
thinly sliced
20g coriander
chopped
20g roasted peanuts
chopped
1 red chilli
sliced, to serve (optional)

For the dressing

3 tbsp peanut butter
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp lime juice
plus extra to serve

Method

step 1
Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the tofu until golden brown on all sides. Set aside.
step 2
To make the dressing, whisk the peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice and 1-2 tbsp water together in a bowl until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more water or add more lime juice for extra tang. Pour this over the fried tofu and mix well.
step 3
Separate the lettuce leaves. Fill them with the sliced carrots, spring onions, radishes and coriander, then top with the tofu mix. Sprinkle over the roasted peanuts and chilli (if using) and a squeeze of lime, if you like.
