Braised Tofu with Escarole
Meatless dishes can be seriously tasty! Braised tofu with escarole makes a great dinner. Each ingredient is browned in turn, then everything simmers together for a while. Sesame seeds round out the flavor beautifully. If you don't have olive oil, use any vegetable oil you like.

- In a skillet over medium heat, toast the sesame seeds for 3–5 minutes, then transfer them to a plate. 2. Cut the tofu into large pieces. Peel the turnip and cut it into large chunks as well. Peel and grate the ginger and garlic. Wash the escarole and cut it into large squares. 3. Heat the olive oil over medium heat, slice the shallots into rings, fry them, and transfer to a separate plate. 4. Then fry the tofu on both sides until golden, about 2–3 minutes per side. Move the tofu to paper towels to blot off the excess oil. 5. Now fry the turnip until tender and golden brown, 3–4 minutes per side. Add the ginger and garlic to the turnip and cook for 1 minute. 6. At this point add the escarole and tofu, pour in the wine, and simmer until the escarole softens. Salt and pepper the finished dish to taste, scatter over the sesame seeds and the fried shallots, and serve. Enjoy!
