          Instructions<\/h3>
          • Before you start<\/span>
            <\/div>Preheat oven to 220\u00b0C (or 200\u00b0C fan bake). If you do not have an ovenproof frypan, set aside a large baking dish.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
          • Prep & cook roasties<\/span>
            <\/div>Dice potatoes 2cm. Toss with oil on a lined oven tray and spread in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper and roast on lower oven rack for 25-30 minutes, until tender and golden. Turn once during cooking.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
          • Prep & cook tofu.<\/span>
            <\/div>Pat tofu dry and cut into 8 long fingers, 2cm wide. Heat oil in a medium frypan on medium-high heat – a Le Creuset 30cm Shallow Casserole is perfect here! Coat tofu in rag\u00f9 spices and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden. Transfer tofu to a plate, set aside and return pan to medium-high heat.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
          • Make sauce & bake<\/span>
            <\/div>Mince garlic. Heat oil and garlic for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Add cashew cream, tomatoes, sugar and salt and simmer for about 5 minutes or until reduced. Zest lemon and add to pan along with spinach. Stir to combine. Transfer to a baking dish if using. Place tofu steaks in sauce and bake on upper oven rack for 15 minutes until sauce has reduced.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
          • Prep beans<\/span>
            <\/div>Trim ends from beans and season with salt and pepper. When potatoes have 5 minutes cook time remaining, push potatoes to one side of the tray and add green beans. Return to the oven for 5minutes, until beans are tender.<\/span><\/div><\/li>
          • Serve<\/span>
            <\/div>Serve tofu with potatoes and sauce, topped with basil and almonds and lemon wedges on the side.<\/span><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n
