You can still have the Creamy Garlic Flavour without the prawns / shrimp. Here's my written recipe that I followed in the cooking video.

Creamy Garlic Tofu Prawns (Serves 3, use more tofu to serve 4 or double the recipe for meal prepping) –

Ingredients:

For the Garlic Tofu Prawns –

450g Firm Tofu,

2 tbsp (~6 Cloves) Minced Garlic,

1 tbsp (20ml) Oil,

1/2 tsp Salt,

1/2 tsp Pepper,

For the Sauce –

1 tbsp (20ml) Oil,

2tbsp (~6 cloves) Minced Garlic,

1 tbsp (20ml) Lemon Juice,

1 cup (250ml) Vegan Stock,

2 cups (500ml) Plant Milk,

1/4 cup Cornflour,

1/4 cup (63ml) Water,

1/4 cup Fresh Parsley,

To serve –

Cooked Rice,

Method:

Squeeze excess water out of tofu, slice into thick slices and then shape into L-shaped pieces or just rectangle strips. Add to a bowl.
Make the marinade in a small bowl by combining the minced garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Add the marinade to the tofu, stir to coat. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
If serving with rice, cook now.
Heat a frypan over medium-high heat, once warm add in the garlic tofu, cook in a single layer for around 5 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and cook on the other side.
Once the tofu is golden brown on both sides, remove from the pan into a clean bowl and set aside.
Meanwhile to make the sauce, scrape out any browned garlic (so it doesn't burn), then over medium heat cook the extra minced garlic in the oil until browned.
Add the lemon juice, stock and plant milk and stir to combine.
In a small bowl add the cornflour, followed by the water and stir until smooth. Pour this mixture into the sauce and stir constantly until it thickens the sauce.
Add the tofu back into the pan and stir it through the sauce.
Chop the fresh parsley, stir it through the sauce and then serve over the freshly cooked rice, enjoy.
