Instructions
- Take all the ingredients for the marinade in a flat bowl.
- Squeeze the tofu cubes gently to remove excess water and add to the marinade. Coat each cube and let it sit for 15 mins.
- Cut the remaining vegetables into squares that are just a little bit smaller than the tofu. We want the sides of the tofu cubes to touch the hot pan and develop a nice crust.
- Put the Tofu and the vegetables on the skewer sticks. Brush some of the remaining marinade over them.
- Heat a tempered iron pan to a high temperature. Smear a little bit of cooking oil and place the skewers on it.
- Cook for just enough time to develop a crisp layer on the tofu without burning it.
- Turn and repeat on all sides till the veggies are also done. Remove and keep aside.
- For the spicy chickpeas, heat 1 tsp oil in a wok.
- Add the paprika and cumin powder. Wait for 15-20 seconds for it to release it's flavor.
- Add the chickpeas and tomato puree. Stir fry on high for 3-4 mins. Remove from the flame.
- Prepare the rice as per your usual cooking method.
- For assembling the Burrito bowl, fill equal parts of the bowl with the rice and the spicy chickpeas. Place the grilled tofu and veggie skewers over it.
