Masala Baked Tofu, page 146with saag and gobi aloo
This was... okay. Not bad, certainly, but not terribly exciting, either. We ate it tonight as a main dish, along with some saag (spinach) and gobi aloo (potatoes and cauliflower).
The seasonings were fine; El Hombre remarked that he would have preferred it to be more "saucy." The girls, however, loved it, so I suppose that means it is probably kid-friendly, depending on the kid. The seasonings were mild enough to not scare them off. I think I would have like a more bold flavor, but then, the kids might not like it.
Again, like the Basic Baked Tofu, this would be a fine choice for a sandwich, or wrap, or to top a salad. But as a star attraction on the dinner plate, it just didn't have enough ooomph on its own.
However, having said all that: I am totally stuffed after tonight's dinner, but I think it's because I ate too much saag. "Too much" surely doesn't apply to spinach, does it?

Too much never applies to spinach. How can you have too much spinach? I don't understand...
I know, right?!? That's what I thought, too, but I was uncomfortably full last night. I didn't eat very much of the tofu or gobi aloo, but I did eat a LOT of the saag. Popeye would be proud.
Hmm, I love the Masala Baked Tofu, but I guess you're right that I'm not eating it for dinner--it's a yummy snack I munch on throughout the day.
