Teriyaki Tofu Triangles

These teriyaki tofu triangles are a fantastic way to enjoy plant-based protein, offering a delightful balance of sweet, savoury and ginger-infused flavours. By pressing the tofu and cutting it into thin triangles, you ensure every bite achieves a satisfyingly crisp texture while soaking up the rich, umami-packed marinade. Whether you use honey for a vegetarian version or maple syrup to keep the dish strictly vegan, the result is a sticky, golden finish that rivals any restaurant-style dish.

This versatile vegan recipe is perfect for busy weeknights as it requires minimal preparation and cooks in around ten minutes. Serve these triangles alongside steamed jasmine rice or tossed through a vibrant vegetable stir-fry for a nutritious and delicious dinner. The addition of fresh spring onions provides a crisp, bright contrast to the ginger and dark sesame oil.

Ingredients for Teriyaki Tofu Triangles

  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon light olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon dark sesame oil

  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

  • 2 teaspoons rice vinegar or white wine vinegar

  • 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger or a good pinch of ground ginger

  • 2 teaspoons hoisin sauce, optional

  • One 450g tub extra-firm tofu

  • 1 or 2 spring onions, thinly sliced, optional

How to make Teriyaki Tofu Triangles

  1. Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a small bowl and stir together.

  2. Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Blot well between clean tea towels or several layers of paper towels, then cut each slice through the thickness again to make 1/4-inch-thick slices. Blot briefly again.

  3. Cut each slice into 2 squares, then each square on the diagonal into 2 triangles. Place in a shallow pan and drizzle with the marinade. Gently turn the tofu pieces over so that both sides are coated with marinade. Let stand for 10 minutes or so.

  4. Heat a wide nonstick skillet. Transfer the tofu and marinade into the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring gently and frequently, until the tofu is nicely browned on most sides.

Scatter spring onions over the tofu if desired, and serve at once.
