Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 (14 oz.) package of extra firm tofu*
  • 1 cup Stove Top Savory Herbs Stuffing Mix
  • 1 cup gravy*
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro, with the stems
  • ½ green pepper
  • ½ yellow onion
  • 2 sprigs of thyme
  • 2 sage leaves
  • 2 garlic cloves*
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 ½ tbsp white vinegar
  • ½ tbsp Goya Adobo with Pepper*
  • 4 pieces of single-layer cheesecloth, approximately 6x10 inches each
Instructions
  1. Drain as much of the liquid out of the tofu.
  2. Cut a block of tofu into 4 x 4 inch slabs.
  3. Place the tofu in an oven safe glass pan, big enough to place the tofu slabs as flat as possible.
  4. Blend together all of the marinade ingredients. Feel free to add extra oil or water if it isn’t blending well, one tablespoon at a time.
  5. Pour half of the marinade over the tofu and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  6. Once you are ready to start making the roulades, Pre-heat the oven to 350*F (175*C)
  7. Cut 4 pieces of single-layer cheesecloth, approximately 6x10 inches each.
  8. Place one slab of tofu per cheesecloth, add enough stuffing to cover half of each slab and tightly roll the cheesecloth until you have a cylinder like shape.
  9. Twist the ends of the cheesecloth and fold them under and put them back in the pan, it is important to note that the tofu will not completely cover the stuffing on the bottom, but do not worry because the cheesecloth will hold it in place.
  10. Pour the leftover marinade over each roll and bake in the oven at 350*F (175*C) for 45 minutes, basting it once halfway through cooking.
  11. Once cooked, let them cool for about 5 to 10 minutes and then carefully remove the cheesecloth and server the tofu roulades with your favorite gravy.
  12. Enjoy
  13. Tips: *My favorite tofu is the Trader Joe’s brand Extra Firm Tofu, I have found that it is the one with the least amount of liquid and it doesn’t ever fall apart.
  14. *You can use your favorite gravy or my Vegan Mushroom Gravy
  15. *If you do not like garlic too much, you can use 1 clove only.
  16. *This is can be found in the ethnic section of your grocery store, if you cannot find it, you can make your own, it is a mix of salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, dried oregano, and turmeric powder. 1 tbsp of each, mixed well, store it in an airtight container in your spice cabinet. You can use this to season beans, rice or vegetable. USE ONLY ½ TBSP to make the marinade for this recipe.
  17. Prep time is about 2 hour or more depending on how long you decide to marinade the tofu
