Cooking instructions

Wrap the tofu in a clean dishcloth and place it on a cutting board. Place another cutting
board on the top and place a heavy object (e.g. a large can of food or some heavy books)
onto it. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes, so the tofu loses water and becomes more com-
pact. This allows the tofu to absorb the aromas better later on.
Cut tofu horizontally into four even slices with a sharp knife. Brush the slices with the
soy sauce. Heat 1 TBS of extra virgin olive oil in a large pan, add minced garlic and the
tofu slices in one layer. Cook on one side for 3 to 4 minutes on medium heat, until lightly
colored. Using tongs, turn the tofu over and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato
sauce, olives, capers and oregano, adjust with salt and pepper and let it cook on low to
medium flame for 5 minutes until the sauce is slightly reduced. Turn the tofu and let it
cook for another 5 minutes. Remove and serve.
