Directions

  1. Mix coconut milk, kecap manis, curry paste, turmeric powder, ginger, and vegan fish sauce together in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Seal and shake to mix.

  2. Cut tofu into 2-inch pieces and place in the bag. Seal and shake to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes.

  3. Combine peanut butter, coconut milk, chili-garlic sauce, kecap manis, lime juice, and ginger in a bowl. Whisk until sauce is smooth. Set aside.

  4. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

  5. Remove the tofu pieces and tap to remove any excess marinade. Skewer an equal number of tofu pieces onto each skewer.

  6. Grill the skewers on each side until browned, basting the skewers with the marinade as they cook, 10 to 15 minutes total.

  7. Drizzle the peanut sauce over the skewers and serve with extra sauce and lime wedges on the side.

Recipe Yield

4 skewers

Recipe Note

Indonesian-style vegan satay marinade seasons skewered chunks of tofu before they're grilled. Serve with peanut sauce to replicate this Asian street food as an appetizer or, if desired, serve over rice for a meal.
