Explore CuisineSavvy recipes and articles tagged Tofu.
This collection brings together CuisineSavvy recipes explicitly tagged Tofu. It is a focused way to explore the catalogue without scrolling through every plant-based recipe on the site. Tags describe the recipe as published; they are not inferred from a title or from a search phrase. That makes the recipes here a more dependable match for the topic, while still leaving room for different cuisines, courses, cooking methods and levels of complexity.
Use the filter below to narrow these tofu recipes by an ingredient, dish or cooking style, then sort the complete set by newest, oldest or HealthScore. Each recipe links to its full ingredients, method, declared allergens and nutrition panel, so you can compare the details that matter to you rather than relying on a label alone. Nutrition needs vary from person to person; where a category relates to a medical condition or prescribed diet, use the recipe data as a starting point and follow advice from your qualified healthcare professional.
Golden, creamy and deeply savoury, this one-pan skillet piles seared tofu and king oyster mushroom strips into a smoky paprika sauce with sun-blushed tomatoes and a cloud of wilted spinach — comfort food that looks as good as it tastes.

A fiercely crimson, bubbling Korean stew that delivers deep heat, funk and umami in every spoonful — silken tofu trembles in a scarlet broth alongside fermented kimchi and meaty mushroom strips. It looks dramatic straight from the stone pot to the table, and tastes like pure comfort with a slow, gochugaru burn. Ladle it over steamed rice on a cold evening and pour a cold Korean lager or barley tea alongside.

A fully plant-based, low FODMAP take on Monash University's classic BBQ Chicken Skewers with Lemon Sauce.

Garlic-infused olive oil stands in for fresh garlic — the standard Monash substitution — delivering rich allium flavour without a single fructan. Bright, smoky and weeknight-fast.

A bold, plant-based adaptation of Mediterranean grilled whole branzino. Extra-firm tofu is pressed, soaked in a kelp-and-sea-salt brine for genuine marine depth, then wrapped in nori — which crisps and chars on the grill exactly as fish skin does — and grilled over high heat until golden. The vibrant tomato-caper salsa, bright with Kalamata olives, balsamic, and fresh parsley, is kept exactly as in the original. Aromatic lemon slices, rosemary, and flat-leaf parsley frame the slabs on the grate. Fully vegan; no flavour compromises.
