Hi Mona,
You could replace the tofu with paneer, but then you’d lose the health benefits
. Check out our recipe for “Roasted Chutney Paneer”….you’d like that!

Hello Hetal and Anuja,
I tried this recipe today… I added soy sauce and schezwan sauce… everything went well but the taste was bland not salty not spicy not tangy… nothing…. Is it because I have used schezwan sauce?

Hi Priyanka,
The combination of soy sauce and sambal provides the salty and tangy (and spicy) flavors. Since there is no salt in the recipe, you might have to add additional soy sauce to get the salty taste.

Inspired from this recipe…I used knorr’s green chilli garlic sauce with soy sauce… merinated the tofu for an hour in this sauce and then cooked it with the sauce minus the oil on the pan… We ate it with bbq veggies and burgers yum!!

It is a Chinese Chili Sauce and can be bought at Asian stores as well as Walmarts or Targets.
You can substitute it with any chili sauce you you like and have available.
