Cooking Steps

1

• Grate carrot. Slice cucumber into thin sticks. • Cut firm tofu (see ingredients) into 1cm pieces. • Place cornflour (see ingredients) in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add tofu and toss to coat.

2

• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, shake excess flour off the tofu, then cook tofu, turning occasionally, until golden, 5-7 minutes. • Remove pan from heat. Add plant-based Asian mushroom sauce and lemongrass & makrut lime paste, tossing to thicken, 1 minute.

3

• While tofu is cooking, combine grated carrot, slaw mix, mayonnaise and a drizzle of rice wine vinegar in a large bowl. Season to taste. • Microwave mini flour tortillas on a plate in 10 second bursts, until warmed through.

4

• Fill each tortilla with a helping of slaw, cucumber and lemongrass and makrut lime tofu. • Sprinkle with crushed peanuts to serve. Enjoy!
