Besan Tofu Cubes 🧈✨ 3-Ingredient Desi Protein Delight! Soft, jelly-like, protein-packed & made with just 3 basic Ingredients The desi answer to tofu 💫

Step 1

Add besan and salt to a bowl. Add a little water first and whisk really well to make a smooth, lump-free paste. Gradually add more water and whisk until you get a very thin, watery batter. Heat a kadhai/pan and add tsp mustard oil. Spread/brush it well across the base and sides so the besan mixture doesn't stick. Pour in the besan mixture and start stirring continuously on high flame. As it heats, you'll notice the mixture beginning to thicken and develop that gooey, jelly-like texture. Keep stirring and cooking, reducing the flame if needed. Continue for around – minutes, stirring continuously with short breaks if required. The mixture is ready when it becomes thick and gooey, starts leaving the sides of the pan, and the raw besan taste disappears. Grease a plate/tray and immediately transfer the mixture onto it. Spread and flatten it evenly using your hands or by gently tapping/shaking the plate. Let it cool completely and set. Once completely cold, cut into cubes/pieces.
