    Instructions

    1. 1

      Press 16 ounces of extra-firm tofu for 30 minutes to remove excess water, then carefully cut it into 1-inch cubes.

    2. 2

      In a large bowl, combine the cubed tofu with 2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, ensuring all tofu is evenly coated.

    3. 3

      Preheat your tandoor oven to 450°F (232°C) for at least 20 minutes to achieve the ideal cooking temperature.

    4. 4

      Carefully thread the marinated tofu cubes onto metal skewers and place them inside the preheated tandoor, baking for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally until the tofu is slightly charred and firm.

    5. 5

      While the tofu bakes, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add 0.5 large green bell pepper, 0.5 large red onion, and 2 minced cloves of garlic, sautéing for 5 minutes until softened.

    6. 6

      Stir in 1 cup of sliced okra, 1 cup of corn kernels, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, and 0.25 cup of vegetable broth into the skillet, continuing to cook for another 7 to 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

    7. 7

      Serve the hot tandoor-baked Cajun spiced tofu skewers immediately alongside the warm smoked okra and corn medley, garnished with fresh parsley.
