    Preparation Steps

    1

    Rinse the quinoa thoroughly. Cook it in twice the amount of water for about 15 minutes. Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

    2

    Cut the tofu into small cubes, then mix with 1 tablespoon of lime juice and the soy sauce. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.

    3

    Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir to combine.

    4

    Meanwhile, in another skillet, pan-fry the marinated tofu until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

    5

    Combine the tahini with 1 tablespoon of lime juice, then drizzle it over the pan-fried tofu cubes for a richer flavor.

    6

    To assemble, place the quinoa in a deep bowl, then arrange the pan-fried tofu cubes on top. Sprinkle with black sesame seeds and fresh cilantro. Drizzle with the lime-tahini sauce.
