Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 15 oz extra firm tofu
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce, ensure vegan
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
Equipment
- Mixing bowl
- Frying pan
Instructions
- Whisk together the breadcrumbs, flour, paprika and salt in a mixing bowl.
- Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a wok or pan over a medium-high heat. Dip the tofu cubes in the breading, making sure each one is thoroughly coated.
- Transfer the tofu cubes to the pan, making sure not to overcrowd it - it may be necessary to work in batches. Fry for 8-10 minutes, rotating the tofu cubes around once every 2 minutes, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a plate and set aside when done.
- Clean the wok/pan, before adding the BBQ sauce, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, water and cornstarch. Lower the heat to a low/medium and whisk continuously until the sauce thickens.
- Remove from the heat, add the tofu cubes, mix together, and serve.
