Tofu is also known as bean curd. It is prepared by coagulating soy milk and then pressing the resulting curds into solid white blocks. Nutritionally, tofu is low in calories, while containing a relatively large amount of protein. It is high in iron, and can have a high calcium or magnesium content depending on the coagulants used in manufacturing.
Tofu can be of varying firmness – silken, soft, firm, extra firm or super firm. It has a subtle flavor, so can be used in savory and sweet recpies. It is often seasoned or marinated to suit the recipe and its flavors, and due to its spongy texture it absorbs the flavors well.
Paneer in vegetarian recipes can easily be substituted with Tofu, to make them suitable for plant-based, or vegan diet.

- Red Bell Pepper

Cut the Tofu into bite-size pieces. Place them in a bowl of warm water, and keep them aside.
Use minced ginger-garlic and even green chili.
Chop the rest of the veggies in bite-size.
On a hot plate or pan start roasting the veggies from onions, potatoes, peppers, to tofu. Transfer the veggies to a plate.
On the same pan, stir-roast ginger and garlic. Once well done, toss the veggies into it.
Serve immediately, with red chili sauce, lemon juice, black pepper, and salt.
Note: The Tofu And Veggies Platter gets ready in under 15 minutes. It makes a great vegan snack/meal. Vegetarians may replace the tofu with paneer. In place of lemon, we may use low sodium soy sauce.
Some other veggies, that I would like to incorporate in the above platter are mushrooms, broccoli, sweet potato, and Brussels sprouts.
