Ingredients

  • 180g tofu
  • 120g couscous
  • 80g cucumber
  • 80g cherry tomatoes
  • 50g tzatziki
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 30g red onion
  • 1 tsp dried oregano & smoked paprika
  • 40g cucumber

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the cucumber and cherry tomatoes, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Pour just-boiled stock over the couscous, cover for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

  3. 3

    Press the tofu for 10 minutes, cut into cubes and air-fry or pan-fry until golden and crisp on all sides (about 12 minutes).

  4. 4

    Rub the protein with oregano, paprika and lemon. Spoon over cool tzatziki and scatter with the sliced red onion when serving.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the cucumber and cherry tomatoes for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: couscous first, then the veg and crispy tofu, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the cucumber.
