3. Cook the basmati rice in salted water as the packet says and fluff it with a fork.
4. Thread the tofu onto skewers and grill them on a very hot griddle for 8-10 minutes, turning until golden.
5. Serve the skewers with the rice and the salad dressed with the remaining lemon juice.

Tips

• A spoonful of marinade kept aside, with chopped coriander, becomes the sauce on the side.
