Ingredients (serves 4)
-
1 bottle Eaten Alive Smoked Sriracha
-
1 block firm tofu, cut into 1cm thick slabs
-
8 slices white bread
-
1 Hispi (or any tender) cabbage, shredded
-
75g mayonnaise or vegan mayo
-
50g plain flour
-
1 egg, whisked or 50ml milk alternative
-
50g breadcrumbs (Panko work best here)
-
Oil for frying
Method
1) Drain, slice, and marinade the slabs of tofu in a generous amount of Smoked Sriracha for as long as you have (or use straight away), making sure to save 2 tbsp of the sriracha for later.
2) Put your flour, egg/milk alternative, and breadcrumbs into three separate containers
3) Taking care not to break the pieces of tofu, cover them in flour, then egg/water, then breadcrumbs
4) With a frying pan on medium heat, add the oil and heat until a breadcrumb will sizzle. Fry the tofu until you have an even, golden colour on both sides. Place on a kitchen towel to drain any excess oil.
5) Mix your mayonnaise with the remaining sriracha and slather it over 4 of the slices of bread. Top with shredded cabbage and the katsu tofu, pop the lid on and enjoy!
