Ingredients
Method
Gather and prepare your ingredients. Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan.
Place the sweet potato rounds onto a baking tray. Drizzle with ⅓ of the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Place into the oven and bake for 15 minutes, until partially cooked.
Place the panko and sesame seeds into a small bowl. Drizzle with another ⅓ of the olive oil and stir to incorporate.
Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the broccoli, sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Take the parcooked sweet potatoes out of the oven. Arrange the tofu on the tray and sprinkle each piece with some of the panko and sesame mixture. Arrange the broccoli on the tray.
Place back into the oven and bake for 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the sesame breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
To make the sauce, place all ingredients into a bowl and whisk to combine. The sauce should be loose enough to be drizzled off the back of a spoon. You may need to add extra water depending on the thickness of your tahini.
Drizzle the sauce over the traybake, and sprinkle with extra toasted sesame seeds, if liked.

First time for me eating tofu-I wasn't keen on the texture but the veg and sauce were delicious
I loved this recipe. The only thing I changed was to add a tbsp of cornstarch to the sesame and panko mix, and cooking the tofu in the air fryer rather than adding it to the sweet potatoes and broccoli. Sauce is easy and delicious.
It sounds good, and veggies & sauce were nice (hence 2 stars). Tofu needs marinating before cooking or pan / air frying, otherwise it’s very bland with no texture or flavour. I don’t recommend the tofu (in it’s current format).
The sauce was delicious. The tofu took a lot longer to cook than instructed but overall, I think it’s a very repeatable recipe. I plan on using the leftovers in a pita pocket with shredded cabbage or lettuce and a drizzle of the sauce.
Delicious and easy. Works with a variety of vegetables.
Loved it. Simple, easy and delicious.
Will definitely have it again
Sauce was very salty. I would have preferred to marinate the tofu to give it more moisture and flavor as it came out rather dry. Sweet potatoes were delicious though!
A nice simple dish which I cooked in the air fryer. Added asparagus to the broccoli, but found they were done before the panko and sesame seeds looked brown so I removed the veggies earlier. The sauce is lovely, I'd use it with other dishes too.
Nice dish.
Another winner! The sauce was delicious and I will certainly use it for other recipes.
Will make a bit more sauce next time. I used butternut squash as didn’t have any sweet potatoes which worked well just left them 5 mins longer initially
Nice and quite easy. Most ingredients I had already, so that was good.
This is lovely! The dressing is amazing
Delicious side dish - I recommend making extra sauce.
Only did the tofu as I never know what to do with it and it was delicious as was the sauce . Will definitely make again
Delicious! And easy to make.
Another great tofu meal - I added some chilli flakes to the tofu topping as we like heat. The sweet potatoes didn’t take long to cook at all so keep any eye on them. Delicious and filling
delicious! lovely flavour and texture combo!
Felt like it needed rice or something else added to make it feel a more substantial meal. But the dressing was a hit.
Broccoli was burnt, 15 mins was too long. Rest was good.
Such a great recipe! Light but nutritious and packed with protein and fibre. Thanks and keep on going! 😊
The tofu was not as toasted/ crispy as I expected but still very tasty with the dressing.
Easy to cook and tasty. The dressing was really good
A tiny bit bland, I'd add some spices to the tofu next time. Other than that, i love that this was so quick to make!
Nice flavour, suggest tofu is cut into cubes instead of wedges and maybe fried in olive oil instead of roasted
So tasty loved the sauce very versatile as well.
Gorgeous meal I live on my own so going to have the other half tomorrow!
