Ingredients

  • 180g tofu
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g red cabbage
  • 80g sweetcorn
  • 50g salsa
  • 50g red onion
  • 15g lime
  • 2 tsp fajita seasoning
  • fresh coriander

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the red cabbage and sweetcorn, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  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

    Toss the protein and onion in fajita seasoning and cook over high heat until charred. Finish with lime juice and spoon salsa over the top.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the red cabbage and sweetcorn for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: quinoa first, then the veg and crispy tofu, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh coriander.
