Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F.
- Prep Tofu by pressing it under a heavy pan to release excess water and then cut in cubes.
- Prepare the tofu marinade by mixing all the ingredients and marinate the Tofu cubes.
- Transfer the marinated Tofu cubes to a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, remove from the oven and set aside.
- While Tofu is baking, start working on the sauce.
- Add Country Crock Plant Butter to a medium pan on medium heat.
- Once Country Crock Plant Butter has melted, add onion, and sauté until translucent.
- Add garlic and ginger, sauté for 1 minute, then on low heat add all the dry spices, and sauté for a few seconds.
- Now add in crushed tomatoes, stir in well and cook until it is bubbling.
- Add Country Crock Plant Cream, mix well and bring the sauce to a boil. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
