Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 15 oz tofu extra firm
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce ensure vegan
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk together the breadcrumbs, flour, paprika and salt in a mixing bowl.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Remove from the heat, add the tofu cubes, mix together, and serve.
