Ingredients
Method
- Drain tofu well and cut into slices or blocks.
- In a plate, mix the vegetable drink with 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice and let it curdle for 5 minutes.
- Finely mix millet flakes or oat flakes.
- Place these in a 2nd plate.
- Mix with soy sauce, paprika powder, chili powder, salt and pepper.
- In a 3rd plate, fill the cornstarch.
- First roll the sticks in the cornstarch, then dip them in the coagulated liquid. If possible, repeat this process again. However, you need more starch for this.
- Finally, roll the tofu in the dry mixture and place on a sheet of baking paper.
- Bake in preheated oven at 180 degrees celsius top/bottom heat for 10 minutes. Then turn once and bake for another 5 – 10 minutes.
Tips
Alternatively, mix 2 tablespoons of soy yogurt with 1 tablespoon of soy drink and omit the apple cider vinegar.
Goes well with sweet chili sauce or just ketchup with chips or in a bun with pickles, lettuce and onions.
