I like tofu in many forms, straight off the block cold, scrambled in egg or as scrambled egg, grilled with BBQ sauce and in sushi with tamari or hot sauce. I recently started buying a smoked version of firm tofu by The ToFoo Co. but it tasted more roasted than smokey. It bothered me until I decided to use it as a roast chicken replacement.

I asked a few people what kind of salad this tasted like and they all said ‘chicken mayo’ and it’s dairy and gluten free too, so here it is.

  • Firm tofu
  • 1/3 tin of mixed beans
  • Sweetcorn
  • Baby gem lettuce
  • Slice of onion
  • Salt
  • Toasted sesame oil
  • Vegetable oil
  • Garlic mayo.
  1. Squeeze out excess water from the tofu by wrapping with paper towels pressing.
  2. Slice up tofu and generously salt it
  3. Pour sesame oil and vegetable oil onto a saucer and coat the tofu on all sides
  4. Grill on medium for around five minutes so tofu is lightly browned but not crispy
  5. Put tofu on the bed of salad
  6. Squirt over mayo

So simple but so tasty! This tastes amazing in a fajita wrap as well.
