Method

  1. 1

    Press the firm tofu (140 g) for 15 minutes between two weighted plates.

  2. 2

    Cut it into 1 cm slices and mark them for 4 minutes per side on a very hot griddle pan, with no fat, to get brown stripes.

  3. 3

    Peel the grapefruit (120 g) to the flesh: cut off both ends, stand the fruit upright and follow its curve with the knife until no white pith is left.

  4. 4

    Cut the segments free between the membranes over a bowl, to catch the juice that will become the dressing.

  5. 5

    Drain the chickpeas (50 g) and toast them dry for 6 minutes in the griddle pan, until they split slightly.

  6. 6

    Toast the pumpkin seeds (8 g) dry for 3 minutes, separately.

  7. 7

    Whisk the caught grapefruit juice with the lemon juice (15 ml), salt and pepper.

  8. 8

    Plate the rocket (60 g), the warm tofu, the grapefruit segments, the sliced avocado (40 g), the chickpeas, the seeds and the chopped mint (5 g), then spoon over the dressing.
