First make the tikka paste by blending all ingredients (Leftover paste can be frozen)

Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees

Chop tofu into 16 squares and press with kitchen towel to remove excess water

Fry tofu in 1tbsp oil until browned (around 10 minutes)

Make tikka sauce by combining all ingredients (add more yoghurt for a milder sauce or more paste for spicier)

Skewer tofu pieces and top with the tikka sauce - cook in oven for 8 minutes

Meanwhile combine slaw ingredients and prepare rice.

Serve and enjoy!
