Calories: 435kcal
Ingredients
- 400 g firm tofu frozen then thawed
- 1 large nori sheet
- 8 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 150 ml plant milk
- 200 g breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp salt
- Oil to cook
Instructions
- Squeeze out all of the water from the tofu between two chopping boards and leave to rest.
- Cut into 4 squares.
- Cut the nori sheet into squares that roughly fit the shape and size of the tofu fillets, using a dash of water to stick to the tofu.
- Mix 4 tbsp cornstarch with the milk and leave aside.
- Mix the remaining 4 tbsp cornstarch with the onion and garlic powders and dust the tofu.
- Dip the dusted tofu in the cornstarch paste.
- Then dip into a bowl filled with the breadcrumbs.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 200C until golden brown, flipping halfway.
Notes
- Gluten-free breadcrumbs can also be used
- Additional spreads and fillings can be added alongside the tofu fish fillet in the bun
- Fillets can also be cooked using an air fryer or deep-fried – though deep-frying will increase the energy (calorie) content of this recipe.
