Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat oven and prepare trays
5 minPreheat your oven to 200°C / 180°C fan. Take out two baking trays and a saucepan.
Equipment: oven, baking trays, saucepanTemperature: 200°CTear and marinate tofu chunks
5 minRoughly tear the tofu into chunks with your hands. We recommend tearing the block in half, then in half again, and so on until you have around 16 pieces. Place them into a bowl with the tikka marinade and mix carefully to avoid breaking them apart.
Equipment: bowlCook spiced basmati rice
10 minPlace the basmati rice into your saucepan along with the rice spice mix , then cover with twice its volume of water. Place over a medium-high heat, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Leave to cook until light and fluffy, around 8 minutes.

25 minRun the bamboo skewers under the tap (this will stop them from burning), then carefully thread the marinated tofu pieces onto the skewers, aiming for around four pieces per skewer. Place them on your baking tray and reserve any remaining marinade. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then turn them over, brush over the remaining marinade and bake for another 10 minutes until lightly charred at the edges.
