I recently turned vegetarian and have been looking for some winning tofu receipes. This one is definitely fantastic -- so easy, and the ingredients are so basic. I omitted the marmite, as I did not have any and it still turned out fine. I chose to bake the steaks, flipping once during the process. For the last 5 minutes or so, I turned on the broiler which gives them a great chewy texture. I'd definitely make this again. Thanks!
