KEEN ON Quinoa

Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the corn, black beans and NOMU rub. Fry for a further 4-5 minutes. Season and set aside.

TASTY TOFU
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the tofu until golden, 2-3 minutes per side, shifting as it colours. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with the smoky BBQ sauce. Remove the pan from the heat and season.
