Step 3: Cook the veggie kabobs
To cook in a pan: Heat a grill pan with a little oil (brush it on with a silicone brush). Once heated, add the skewers, and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, basting with extra marinade before turning it each time). The skewers are ready when the vegetables become slightly charred, and the tofu is golden brown.
To bake in the oven: Preheat the oven to 390 °F/200 °C, and place the skewers in a single layer on a baking dish. Brush the excess marinade over the skewers and then bake for 25 minutes, flipping once after 15 minutes.
You can optionally save some marinade to baste the veggie tofu kabobs when flipping at the 15-minute mark. For extra ‘charr,’ broil the tofu veggie kabobs at the end of the baking process.
Once cooked, serve the skewers with peanut butter sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds and fresh herbs – then enjoy!
