Best Korean Tofu Leek Bbq Recipes
KOREAN TOFU & LEEK BBQ
This recipe is an easy to make, and easy to eat addition to the outdoor fun on National Picnic Week. Tofu is a good source of protein and comes in a range of textures, firm suitable for grilling and stir-fries, soft for desserts and sauces. Good news for all the women out there suffering with menopausal symptoms, hot flushes, for example, may be improved by incorporating tofu in the diet. Tofu contains phytoestrogens called isoflavones which have a similar structure to the female hormone oestrogen, which could slightly boost the oestrogen levels in women. Sesame seeds have numerous benefits, from heart, skin and hair health to reducing inflammation in the joints.

KOREAN STYLE BBQ TOFU
A sweet, savoury and spicy marinade infuses slices of otherwise plain tofu before they're crusted in sesame seeds and grilled to crispy perfection. More tofu recipes and ideas are in my cookbooks: http://yummysmells.blogspot.ca/p/buy-sarahs-cookbooks.html

Steps:
- Combine all the ingredients (except tofu and sesame seeds) in a blender and puree. Pour into a shallow dish.
- Place tofu in the marinade, turning to coat. Cover and place in the fridge for 24 hours - 5 days.
- Remove tofu from the marinade (you can use it to make a sauce if you want, since there's no raw meat involved) and roll in the sesame seeds.
- Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium high heat (I don't recommend an actual barbecue for this unless the grate is really narrow). Grease well.
- Place tofu in one layer on the pan and cook 6 minutes, then carefully turn over and cook another 5-6 minutes.
- Serve as part of a rice or noodle bowl, or with a stir fry. This also tastes great as part of a sandwich or wrap.
