Ginger Tofu Skewers

A quick marinade of tamari, ginger, garlic, and a touch of sweetness infuse these vibrant skewers with savoury depth. Charred until golden and smoky i...n a hot pan, they’re delicious as is—but if you’ve got an extra couple of minutes, don’t skip the sticky glaze. Made by thickening the reserved marinade, it turns into a glossy drizzle that takes these skewers to the next level. Perfect for a summery supper or as part of a larger spread. We've gone for tofu here, but you could use chicken or prawns instead if you like.
