INGREDIENTS
For the Tofu
- 200g firm tofu, well-pressed
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 3 tbsps green nori sprinkle, such as this (can substitute with other seaweed ground into flakes)
- Salt and Pepper
For the Sauce
- 60g / 1/4 cup tomato ketchup
- 60g / 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp tomato puree
- 1/2 – 1 tsp American squeezy mustard, according to taste
- 1/2 – 1 tsp siracha, according to taste
- Pinch sumac (opt.)
- Salt and pepper
METHOD
Dice the well-pressed tofu into small cubes, mix together the marinade ingredients in a shallow dish or the white base of the tofu press and add the tofu cubes. Cover and leave in the fridge to marinate for as long as you can but for a minimum of half an hour.
In a separate bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients, varying the quantities to suit your taste. When you are ready to create your sandwich or starter, mix the marinated tofu into the sauce and layer the tofu cocktail with lettuce, tomatoes and avocado. Serve with a generous squeeze or slices of lemon.
