Preheat the oven to 200°C. Carefully slice the tofu into 2 cm cubes, ensuring even sizes for consistent cooking.
2
Mix olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, and salt in a bowl. Add the tofu cubes, stirring well to ensure they are fully coated with the marinade.

Arrange the sliced potatoes in a single layer on a baking tray. Season them with salt, then bake in the preheated oven for around 20 minutes until they are golden and tender.

In a pot, blanch the spinach for just 2 minutes to soften it while retaining its vibrant green color. Drain the spinach and set it aside for assembly.

Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add the marinated tofu cubes. Cook them until they turn golden brown on all sides, taking about 7 minutes in total.
