We love a nourish bowl as much as the next person, but what really makes this one sing, is the satay tofu and pickled carrot combo. When paired with sesame sweet potatoes and wilted, garlicky kale, each mouthful will taste even better than the last.

Cooking Steps

Roast the sweet potato
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. 
Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. 
• Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, 
sprinkle with mixed sesame seeds, season with 
salt and toss to coat. 
• Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. 
• Boil the kettle.


TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between 
two trays. 

Prep the veggies
2

• Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, slice carrot
into ribbons.
• In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and 
a good pinch of sugar and salt. Add carrot to 
pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover 
carrot. Set aside.
• Thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. Thinly 
slice kale, discarding any larger pieces of stalk. 
Finely chop garlic. Slice lime into wedges.


TIP: Slicing the carrot very thinly helps it pickle 
faster!

Make the peanut dressing
3

• To a small heatproof bowl, add peanut butter
and the boiling water (2 tbs for 2 people / 
1/4 cup for 4 people), stirring, until smooth 
and combined.
• Add the low sodium soy sauce, the honey and a 
squeeze of lime juice. Stir to combine. Set aside.

Cook the kale
4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil
over medium-high heat.
• Cook kale until slightly wilted, 2 minutes. Add 
garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Transfer to a bowl, add a squeeze of lime juice
and season with salt and pepper. 

Cook the tofu
5

• Cut firm tofu into 1cm-thick steaks.
• In a second medium bowl, combine satay 
seasoning, a good drizzle of olive oil and a 
pinch of salt and pepper. Add tofu, turning 
to coat.
• Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high 
heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook tofu, turning until browned, 2-3 minutes
each side

Serve up
6

• Drain pickled carrot.
• Divide roasted sweet potato, pickled carrot, 
cucumber, garlicky kale and satay tofu 
between bowls.
• Drizzle with peanut dressing. Garnish with 
crushed peanuts. 
• Serve with any remaining lime wedges. Enjoy!

  • Flavour: Some found it delicious with varied flavours, while others felt it was bland and needed more satay sauce.
  • Ease of prep: Several noted it was fiddly with many steps; some suggested resequencing to minimise switching between tasks.
  • Suggestions: Consider marinating tofu longer for more flavour. Some preferred swapping tofu for chicken or using flavour-infused tofu.
