When I saw this recipe for roasted cauliflower and tofu curry in WeightWatchers.com I immediately knew that everybody in my house would love it because I roast cauliflower and tofu separately quite often. I wonder why haven't I tried preparing such a combo before seeing that recipe.
Before proceeding to the recipe few words about the recipes available for free in WeightWatchers.com. I'm not an affiliate trying to promote their site but just an overexcited foodie.
You would be excited too if you check the database of recipes in there. I have bookmarked so many healthy vegetarian recipes from that site and I'm trying it one by one. You can register for free to create an account and add recipes to your recipe box.
The only drawback is, I think there is a limit on the number of recipes you can add to your favorites, so I end up bookmarking a lot of them which becomes a bit difficult to manage.
Roasting cauliflower in the oven brings out the flavor very well. You can cook it just tender or make it as crisp as you want. Broiling it for additional 3-5 minutes gives a nice charred and crispy texture.
I usually prepare a South Indian version of roasted cauliflower using spices like Sambar powder and turmeric.
Also check my recipe for baked tofu Indian style. Unlike many 4 years old my son loves broccoli, cauliflower, tofu, and soy nuggets. (Touch wood!) So he loved this combo of roasted cauliflower and tofu very much. I just had to reduce the quantity of spice and it was good to go.

Recipe
Roasted Cauliflower/Tofu Curry
Ingredients
- 350 Grams Extra Firm Tofu (I Used Low Fat), Cut Into Big Cubes)
- 2 Teaspoons Olive Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Curry Powder As Per Taste
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
- 1 Teaspoon Salt As Per Taste
- 1 Count Onion, Thinly Sliced Lengthwise Large Size
- As Needed Non Stick Cooking Spray
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450F for 15 minutes.
- While the oven is preheating:
- On medium-high heat warm a nonstick skillet. Add the 2 teaspoons of olive oil, spices and salt; swirl skillet to combine. Add onions and cooking, stirring often, until onions are wilted and browned, about 8 to 9 minutes.
- Spray a big baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. To that add the cleaned cauliflower, pressed tofu and the spiced onion mixture. Mix it with a wooden spoon to coat thoroughly. Spread mixture on the sheet in an even layer.
- Roast it about 25-35 minutes, stirring 3 times, until cauliflower and tofu are golden brown. If you like it lightly charred, set the oven at broil and leave it for extra 3-5 minutes.
- Serve over cooked brown rice or with rotis, naans (Indian flat breads). Or fill it in a pita bread.

Tofu and Cauliflower looks so nice together. I have been wanting to try your baked tofu for sometime now, have seen others try it and it looks gorgeous. Another one I wanted to make is the cocktail idlis.
