Sticky BBQ Tofu Tacos

Cornstarch-dusted tofu gets shatteringly crisp in a hot pan, then takes a bath in BBQ sauce. Tuck it into warm corn tortillas with a tangy slaw and you've got a taco worth repeating every week.

Method

  1. 1

    Tear the tofu into bite-size pieces, pat dry and toss with the cornstarch and a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    Fry in the oil over medium-high, turning, until crisp on all sides.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, toss the slaw with the mayo, lime and a pinch of salt.

  4. 4

    Turn off the heat and toss the tofu with the BBQ sauce until sticky.

  5. 5

    Warm the tortillas in a dry pan, then fill with the tofu and slaw.

Storage

Best fresh. Leftover tofu keeps 3 days and re-crisps in an air fryer.

Good to know
  • Swapping to nuggets? Bake them, chop, then toss in the sauce. Dinner in 12 minutes flat.
