Double-Post Tuesday

Besides being Taco Tuesday, it's also Double-Post Tuesday, because not everyone loves tacos. (Gasp!) Today's offerings include Red Curry Lentils with Sweet Potatoes and Spinach and Two-Pea Ravioli. Enjoy!

BAKED TOFU WITH PEANUT SAUCE AND COCONUT-LIME RICE

This is from Yewande Komolafe in The New York Times cooking e-newsletter. Yewande wrote, “A spicy, fragrant peanut sauce reminiscent of the groundnut stews that are popular across West Africa anchors this recipe. Any protein would be lucky to be doused and marinated in it, but tofu soaks up the peanut sauce’s flavors and chars up nicely upon roasting. The tofu’s neutral flavor allows the other flavors in the dish to break through. Red miso and fish sauce provide umami, honey lends a subtle sweetness and the lime zest in the coconut rice brightens it all. Finished with pickled peppers and fresh sliced scallions, this dish comes together to make an exciting but quick weeknight dinner.”

Ingredients

2 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil, plus more for brushing the pan and drizzling

2/3 cup lime juice (from about 5 limes), and zest of 1 lime

Kosher salt

8 baby bell peppers or 1 medium bell pepper (any color will do), stemmed and thinly sliced lengthwise

Black pepper

1 cup long-grain rice like jasmine or basmati

1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk

1 cup smooth, natural peanut butter

1 tablespoon red miso

1 tablespoon grated ginger

2 teaspoons chopped habanero pepper, stem and seeds removed, or 1 tablespoon sambal

2 tablespoons buckwheat honey or molasses

2 (14-ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained and sliced crosswise, 1/4-inch thick

3 cups peppery greens, like arugula, mizuna or baby mustard greens

2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced

Preparation

Heat the oven to 450 degrees and lightly brush a large rimmed sheet pan with oil.

In a small bowl, stir 4 tablespoons lime juice with 1/2 teaspoon salt until salt dissolves. Add the sliced peppers, a few cracks of black pepper and set aside.

In a small pot, combine the rice with 1 cup water and the coconut milk. Season with salt and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over medium-low until the rice is just tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, until ready to serve.

In a medium bowl, whisk 4 tablespoons lime juice with the peanut butter, miso, ginger, fish sauce (if using), habanero, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon honey and 3/4 cup water. Stir until smooth and season to taste with salt.

Arrange the tofu pieces in a single layer on the oiled baking sheet and season with salt. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the peanut sauce over each, covering the top and allowing the sauce to run down and coat the sides. Drizzle the tops with some oil, and roast until glaze is set, deep brown and caramelized along the edges, 18 to 20 minutes. Add the remaining lime juice and 1 tablespoon honey to the leftover peanut sauce in the bowl to make the dressing; set aside.

Divide the greens among bowls. Add the lime zest and half the sliced scallions to the rice, then fluff with a fork. Top the greens with the rice, then the tofu. Spoon the peanut dressing over everything, and garnish with the drained pickled peppers and remaining sliced scallions.

Tip

Peanut sauce can be made 2 to 3 days in advance and stored refrigerated until ready to use.

RED CURRY LENTILS WITH SWEET POTATOES AND SPINACH

This comes from Lidey Heuck at The New York Times cooking e-newsletter. Lidey wrote, "In this vegetarian main inspired by Indian dal, lentils are cooked with an aromatic blend of Thai spices — fresh ginger, turmeric, red curry paste and chile — then simmered in coconut milk until fall-apart tender. Browning the sweet potatoes before cooking them with the lentils brings out their sweetness, balancing the heat from the chile and curry paste, while baby spinach tossed in just before serving adds fresh flavor. Serve over steamed white or brown rice, or with toasted flatbread on the side."

Yield: 4 to 6 servings; Time: 1 hour

To view this online, go to https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1020766-red-curry-lentils-with-sweet-potatoes-and-spinach.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 pound sweet potatoes (about 2 medium sweet potatoes), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes

1 medium yellow onion, chopped

3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste

3 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 tablespoon)

1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated (about 1 tablespoon)

1 red chile, such as Fresno or serrano, halved, seeds and ribs removed, then minced

1 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 cup red lentils, rinsed

4 cups low-sodium vegetable stock

2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste

1 (13-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk

1 (4- to 5-ounce) bag baby spinach

1/2 lime, juiced

Fresh cilantro leaves, for serving

Toasted unsweetened coconut flakes, for serving (optional)

Preparation

In a Dutch oven or pot, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high. Add the sweet potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned all over, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the browned sweet potatoes to a plate and set aside.

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pot and set the heat to medium-low. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the curry paste, garlic, ginger, chile and turmeric, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add the lentils, stock, salt and browned sweet potatoes to the pot and bring to a boil over high. Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are just tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Add the coconut milk and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced and the lentils are creamy and falling apart, 15 to 20 minutes.

Add the spinach and stir until just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the lime juice and season with salt to taste.

Divide among shallow bowls and top with cilantro and coconut flakes, if using.

ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

This is from VeryWellFit, and begins, "Vegetable casseroles are a great way to enjoy fresh produce from the farmers market or make use of a bumper crop. But they can also be loaded with cream and cheese making for a very heavy and high-caloric dish.

"To make this zucchini casserole recipe healthier, instead of adding cream to the sauce it is enriched with tomatoes, onion, garlic, and herbs. The zucchini is then topped with just a bit of cheese. You may notice the absence of breadcrumbs, which also helps cut down on the calories. To compensate for the breadcrumbs' job of soaking up some of the liquid the vegetables exude during cooking, this recipe calls for starting the casserole on a higher heat to dry it out a bit, and then adding the last of the cheese on the top (otherwise it gets too brown or could even burn).

"This zucchini casserole recipe works well with any kind of zucchini or green summer squash, including a combination of squashes."

Prep Time: 20 minutes; Cook Time: 40 minutes; Servings: 8

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/3 cup onion (chopped, about 1/2 of a medium onion)

3 cloves garlic (chopped)

3/4 pound tomatoes (fresh or canned—about a 1-pound can of whole tomatoes, drained)

1 teaspoon Italian herbs (or oregano)

Salt and pepper

1 pound zucchini (approximately 2 medium)

1 cup Italian cheese mixture (grated, packaged, or your own mix including mozzarella, Parmesan, and provolone)

Preparation

Heat oven to 400 F.

Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan. Sauté the onion in the oil for 2 to 3 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for another 30 to 60 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant.

Cut each tomato into 3 to 5 pieces and add to the oil, along with the herbs, salt, and pepper.

Cook over medium heat until the liquid is mostly gone (but not dry), stirring occasionally—you should end up without about 1 cup of the mixture. This should take about 5 to 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, cut the zucchini into slices approximately 1/4 inch thick. These can be either round slices, or lengthwise. Take the largest slices and line the bottom of a 9x9-inch or 8x8-inch pan, or a similarly-sized round pan.

Spread about 1/4 of the tomatoes on top of the zucchini (don't even try to spread evenly; it won't work), followed by 1/4 cup of the cheese.

Continue layering the sauce, zucchini, and cheese. It should come out to 4 layers, but if it only makes 3, just try to divide things relatively evenly. Don't put the final layer of cheese on yet.

Bake for 20 minutes. Top with the rest of the cheese, and lower the temperature to 375F. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown.

Ingredient Substitutions and Cooking Tips

If you'd like to cut down on the fat even more, substitute low-fat or fat-free cheese. Just keep in mind that when you remove the fat, you also lessen the cheeses' melt-ability.

Ingredients

Kosher salt

Vegetable oil

1 pound elbow macaroni or cavatappi

1 quart milk

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, divided

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

12 ounces Gruyere, grated (4 cups)

8 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated (2 cups)

Add the cooked macaroni and stir well. Pour into a 3-quart baking dish.

Slice the tomatoes and arrange on top. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, combine them with the fresh bread crumbs, and sprinkle on the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the macaroni is browned on the top.

TWO-PEA RAVIOLI

This comes from Weight Watchers, and begins, "Convenient frozen cheese ravioli is bulked up with sugar snap and green peas, then tossed with the zest and juice of a lemon for a dish that feels bright and fresh. For the best snap and crunch, choose fresh sugar snap peas—but know that frozen ones will also work well. Thaw them and toss them into the boiling water with the green peas, just long enough to warm them through. Try to serve this dish shortly after tossing everything together; if it sits for a while, the acid in the lemon juice will discolor the peas."

Prep Time: 10 minutes; Cook Time: 10 minutes; Total Time: 20; Serves: 4; Difficultly: Easy; Serving size: 1 1/4 cups

MUSHROOM CHICHARRON TACOS

This some from Jocelyn Ramirez in The New York Times cooking newsletter. Jocelyn wrote, "This simple recipe calls for pan-searing meaty oyster mushrooms so they become as perfectly crispy and golden as chicharrón. Paired with fresh pico de gallo, these mushrooms feel satisfying with their natural umami savoriness. This quick dish tastes like juicy carniceria tacos that balance the richness of fried meat with the acidic punch of salsa."

Yield: 4 servings; Time: 40 minutes

This can be viewed online at https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1022424-mushroom-chicharron-tacos.

Ingredients

For the Pico de Gallo:

1 large beefsteak tomato, cored and cut into 1/4-inch dice

1 large ripe Hass avocado, pitted, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice

2 jalapeños, stemmed and finely chopped (seeded if desired)

1/2 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 to 2 limes)

Coarse kosher salt

For the Mushroom Tacos:

18 ounces oyster mushrooms (from 2 to 3 medium clusters)

1/3 cup neutral oil, such as canola

1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

Black pepper

12 corn tortillas

Preparatioin

Make the pico de gallo: Combine the tomato, avocado, jalapeños, cilantro and lime juice in a bowl and season with salt. Gently fold together. Set aside to allow flavors to marry while the mushrooms cook.

Make the tacos: Tear the oyster mushrooms into bite-size pieces, leaving some mushroom tops whole. To make sure the mushrooms become crisp, cook in two batches: Heat a large cast iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high and coat with half of the oil. Once the oil is hot, add half of the mushrooms in a single layer without crowding the skillet. Cook, stirring every few minutes, until deep golden brown and crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a plate, then repeat with the remaining oil and mushrooms. Return the first batch to the skillet, and add the cumin and salt, and season with pepper. Stir well, then remove from the heat.

While the mushrooms are cooking, warm the tortillas on a comal or heavy skillet over medium-high heat until soft and pliable. Wrap them in a dish towel to keep them warm until ready to serve. Divide the mushrooms and pico de gallo among the warm tortillas. Serve immediately.

GOLDEN TOFU SCRAMBLE TACOS

This is from Vegetarian Times. It begins, "This meatless version of traditional tacos packs a generous dose of protein from the nutritional yeast, tofu, and pinto beans, plus iron from the spinach—nutrients often lacking in vegan diets."

Makes 4 servings

To view this online, go to https://www.vegetariantimes.com/recipes/golden-tofu-scramble-tacos-recipe/.

Ingredients

1 block firm tofu

1 Tbs. olive oil

2 shallots, chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 large red bell pepper, chopped

1/2 tsp. turmeric

1/2 tsp. ground coriander

1/4 tsp. cayenne

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. black pepper

1/4 cup nutritional yeast

1 cup cooked or canned pinto beans (drained and rinsed)

3 cups baby spinach

8 small corn tortillas, warmed

1 avocado, thinly sliced

1 cup salsa of choice

Preparation

Place tofu on paper towel-lined cutting board or other flat surface. Top with more paper towels and another cutting board or flat item. Press down to extract as much water as possible. Using large holes of a box grater or the tines of a fork, grate tofu into bowl.

Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat.

Add shallots and garlic, and cook 2 minutes, stirring often. Stir in red bell pepper, turmeric, coriander, cayenne, salt, and pepper, and heat 1 minute more. Add tofu and nutritional yeast, and cook 2 minutes, stirring often. Add pinto beans and baby spinach, and cook until spinach is slightly wilted and everything is heated through.

Divide tofu mixture among tortillas and top with avocado and salsa.

VEGETARIAN TOFU TACOS

This comes from Laurel Randolph in the Spruce Eats. For this recipe, Laurel wrote, "Tofu is an extremely versatile ingredient and a great way to cut a little meat out of your diet. If you haven't been won over to the soy side yet, these tacos could be the dish that sways you. Firm tofu is broken up and cooked with fragrant spices, and ends up mimicking ground beef and scrambled eggs at the same time. Melty cheese, crunchy slaw, and tangy salsa verde lend the tacos texture and bright flavors. If you're vegan, simply leave out the cheese or swap it for a vegan alternative.

"If you're eating these tacos for brunch, serve with breakfast potatoes and fresh fruit. If you're eating them for dinner, serve with guacamole or bean dip and chips. They're also delicious as hard-shelled tacos if you like your tacos extra crunchy."

Prep Time: 20 minutes; Cook Time: 20 minutes; Total Time: 40 minutes; Servings: 4 to 6; Yield: 8 to 10 tacos

To view this online, go to https://www.thespruceeats.com/tofu-tacos-4142107.

Ingredients

14 ounces tofu, firm, drained and cut into 1-inch cubes

2 cups coleslaw mix

3 scallions, spring onions, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon cilantro, packed, fresh, chopped

2 tablespoons lime juice

Salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 tablespoon canola or grapeseed oil

1 small onion, diced

1 small bell pepper, diced

1 small jalapeño, finely diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon tomato paste

1 teaspoon cumin

1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika, smoked

10 small corn tortillas, or 8 medium tortillas, corn or flour

1 cup cheese, Monterey, shredded

1/2 cup salsa verde

Directions

Gather the ingredients.

Place tofu in a single layer on a double layer of paper towels and top with another double layer of paper towels. Place a heavy pan on top to press moisture out of the tofu. Let sit for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the slaw. Combine the cabbage slaw mix, spring onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Season with salt and toss well.

Add canola or grapeseed oil to a large skillet and heat over medium heat. Once hot, add onion and bell pepper and sauté for 3 minutes. Add jalapeño and garlic and sauté for 1 more minute.

Add tomato paste, cumin, chili powder, and smoked paprika and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until fragrant and evenly distributed.

Add tofu a handful at a time, squeezing and breaking up the tofu with your hands as you add it to the pan. Stir well and season with salt and pepper.

Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often, and seasoning as needed. If the mixture becomes too dry, add a tablespoon of water. You want the mixture to resemble a chunky ground beef taco mix in wetness and texture. Remove from the heat.

Warm the tortillas in the oven (covered on low heat) or in a skillet in batches. Add a sprinkle of cheese followed by the tofu mixture, salsa verde, and slaw. Serve immediately.
