This week on Cooking for Peanuts we have created a crispy tofu dish that is perfect for beginners. Our Hot Chilli Good Nuts not only add flavour but a crispy crunch to match the oven baked tofu. It can be partnered with noodles, rice or whatever you fancy! This is a great dish for meal prep as the tofu and peanuts give this dish a whooping 28g protein per serving.
