Crispy Tofu Veggie Tacos
3 small tortillas
50 g tofu (firm)
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper (ground)
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (powder)
1 tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup pico de gallo ((onion, tomato, cilantro, lime, sea salt))
1/4 purple cabbage (shredded)
3 tsp vegan mayo
1 tsp chipotle sauce
Heat pan, and grease with olive oil.
Press as much liquid out of your tofu as possible, and chop into 1 inch cubes.
In a small bowl, combine cornstarch, salt, and spices.
Coat each piece of tofu in cornstarch mix, and fry until golden brown.
Transfer your tofu to a dry plate, and let cool for about 10 minutes.
Mix together chipotle sauce and vegan mayo in a small bowl, then slather a decent amount on each taco.
Place your cooled crispy tofu pieces in the center of your taco. Then, add your chopped purple cabbage and pico de gallo.
Serve with a lime wedge, and enjoy!
-For low-fat version of the crispy tofu, bake at 400°F or 204°C for 30 minutes.
