Postopek
Korak za korakom
- 1
Press the extra firm tofu for at least 20-30 minutes to remove excess water, then cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Približno 30 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Pressing the tofu helps it absorb the marinade better and achieve a firmer texture when cooked.
- 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Približno 2 min

Add the cubed tofu to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
Približno 30 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Marinating longer will enhance the flavor of the tofu.

While the tofu marinates, prepare the salad by combining the diced cucumber, diced tomato, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl.

Thread the marinated tofu cubes onto skewers, if using. Alternatively, you can grill them directly on the grill surface.
Približno 3 min
Kuharjeva opomba: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent burning.

Grill the tofu for 3-4 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until golden brown with nice grill marks and heated through.
Približno 12 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Avoid overcrowding the grill to ensure even cooking.
- 8
Warm the pita bread on the grill for about 30 seconds per side, or until soft and pliable.
Približno 1 min
Kuharjeva opomba: A quick warm-up makes the pita easier to fold and more enjoyable.
- 9
Assemble the souvlaki by placing grilled tofu into each warm pita bread, topping with the fresh salad, and a dollop of vegan tzatziki, if desired.
