Tofu balls and spicy yogurt sauce

Ingredients
300g extra firm tofu (about a block and a quarter)
¼ cup flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 celery rib, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
4 green onions, finely chopped
1 cup soy and flax breadcrumbs (I used whole wheat and oatmeal)
2 tbsp Japanese soy sauce
1/3 cup tahini
1/3 cup raisins
½ tsp cumin
¼ tsp ground coriander
½ tsp chilli paste (sambal oelek)
¼ cup cornmeal (optional)
2 tbsp soy oil

Method
In a food processor, grind the tofu until its texture resembles that of breadcrumbs.
Add parsley, garlic, green onions and celery until mixture and give this mixture a quick pulse until well combined.
Transfer to mixing bowl, add breadcrumbs, tahini, raisins, soy sauce, cumin, coriander and chilli paste. Mix thoroughly and shape into little bite size balls.
Roll each ball in cornmeal.
Heat oven to 375 and bake for about 25 minutes
*I also made some with curry powder and sunflower seeds in it. I think that walnuts would be a great addition as well.
