TIP: Prepping the slaw first allows the cabbage to soften slightly by the time you're ready to serve.
ā¢ In a small bowl, combine garlic, the honey, katsu paste, mixed sesame seeds and a dash of water. Set aside.
ā¢ In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. ā¢ Cook tofu, turning often, until browned, 2-4 minutes. Add katsu mixture and cook, turning tofu to coat, until slightly sticky, 1-2 minutes. ā¢ Microwave mini flourtortillas on a plate in 10 second bursts, until warmed through.
ā¢ Finely slice long chilli (if using). ā¢ Fill tortillas with creamy pea pod slaw. Top with katsu glazed tofu. ā¢ Sprinkle with chilli and crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy!
