We’re all familiar with the classic caprese salad. But how about a version with tofu? This one’s light, high in protein and brings together the marvellous flavours of summer on a plate. Boiling the tofu in salted water means that it absorbs the flavour of the marinade particularly well within minutes – combined with sun-warmed beef tomatoes it’s an absolute dream.
