Ingredients
Serves: 2
- 280g tofu, cut into 4 steaks
- 1 tsp mild or hot curry powder
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 2 x wholegrain bread rolls
- 1 head romaine lettuce
- 1/2 cucumber, sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 2 slices cheddar cheese or vegan alternative
- 1 tbsp whole egg mayonnaise or vegan alternative
- 1 small red onion, raw or caramelised
Method
Step 1
Drain tofu and press with a paper towel to remove as much excess water as possible.
Step 2
In a small plate, combine the soy sauce and curry powder to create a marinate paste. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Place the marinated tofu in the pan, and cook on each side for several minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 4
To arrange the burger, lightly toast the sliced bread rolls on the frying pan or heat in a toaster. Assemble the burger with the lettuce, cucumber, tomato, cheese, two tofu steaks each and condiments of your choice.
