1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
16 fresh mint leaves
4 ripe plum tomatoes -quartered and seeded

2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and cut into - 1/2-inch pieces

Instructions:
1. Cut tofu in half-horizontally, making two large slices about 1 inch
thick. Cover a cutting board with aluminum foil and place it so that one
end extends over the sink. Prop up the other end so the board slants
slightly toward the sink. Place tofu slices on the board, side by side.
Cover tofu with a second sheet of foil. Place another cutting board or a
baking sheet over the foil and weight it with heavy cans or books. Let
stand for 15 minutes; remove weights and cut tofu into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
2. Prepare a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill.
3. In a medium bowl, blend lime juice, soy sauce and ginger. Add tofu and
toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap; marinate in the refrigerator for 15
minutes.
4. Tuck a mint leaf into each tomato quarter and thread onto 4 or 8 doubled
skewers alternately with tofu, Onion and jalapenos. Discard marinade.
5. Using a long-handled barbecue brush, coat the grill rack lightly with
oil. Grill kebabs, turning occasionally, for 7 minutes. Brush with
Indonesian Sweet Soy Sauce and grill until vegetables are softened and tofu
is well glazed, about 3 minutes more. Serve Immediately.
