- Cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
- Add potatoes and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to an unlined baking sheet. (TIP: Line the baking sheet with parchment for easy clean-up!) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until potatoes are golden-brown and tender, 25-28 min.
- Meanwhile, add 5 cups (10 cups) water and 1 tsp (2 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- While water comes to a boil, finely chop dill.
- Trim green beans.
- Pat tofu dry with paper towels. Cut tofu in half parallel to the cutting board. (NOTE: You will have two square tofu steaks per block.) Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Pan fry until golden, 2-3 min per side.
- Transfer tofu to a plate. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, add green beans to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 1-2 min.
- Drain and return green beans to the same pot, off heat.
- Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to coat.
- Heat the same pan (from step 3) over medium-low.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan until melted, 1 min.
- Add broth concentrate, sour cream, 1 tsp (2 tsp) Dijon and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water, then whisk together.
- Simmer, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min.
- Remove from heat, then stir in 2 tsp (4 tsp) dill.
- Thinly slice tofu.
- Divide tofu, potatoes and green beans between plates.
- Drizzle creamy dill sauce over tofu.
- Sprinkle any remaining dill over top, if desired.
