This dish is ready in less than ten minutes and finishes even faster every single time ! If Tofu does not appeal your taste buds, substitute it with paneer cubes. This is a very healthy post work out snack or any time snack too.
Course : Appetizer
Difficulty level: Very Easy
Ready In: 10 minutes
Serves : 1
Ingredients:
1 tsp olive oil
4 oz or 100 gms ( about 1/2 cup when cubed ) Extra Firm Tofu, sliced into large rectangles
2 small boiled potatoes, cubed, 1 cup approx.
Rock salt and black pepper as per taste
1/2 tsp Chaat masala (or use 1/2 tsp roasted cumin seeds)
1 tsp finely chopped cilantro
1 tsp lime/lemon juice
Directions
Heat 1 tsp oil in a small pan. Stir fry tofu rectangles, two minutes each side on high flame.
Remove tofu from pan when golden brown.
In the same pan, saute potato cubes for about two minutes on medium flame. Remove when potatoes turn golden ( 2-3 minutes ).
Cut the tofu rectangles into smaller cubes. It is easier to cook tofu as a single piece, and then cut it into desired size. You may cut it before cooking and then pan fry each piece, it will just take longer to flip each single cube.
Sprinkle all the spices and lime juice over tofu and potato cubes. Mix well and garnish with cilantro before serving.
Savor it with masala chai.
Cooking suggestions
You may skip cooking the tofu and potato and just sprinkle them with all the spices and enjoy this spicy chaat cold especially in summers. But you would definitely want to eat it warm during winters 🙂
