Ingredients
For the smoked tofu sandwich:
- 1 ciabatta loaf
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3.5 oz smoked tofu
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 avocado - sliced
- 1 to tomato - sliced
- 1 cup arugula
For the tahini sauce:
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- juice of half an orange
- sea salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Heat a pan on high heat. When it's hot, add the olive oil. Then add the tofu and cook, flipping from time to time until it's crispy and golden. Season with a tablespoon of soy sauce, and set aside on a plate.
- While the tofu is cooking, prepare the tahini sauce. In a small bowl, mix the tahini, orange juice, salt, and pepper until you reach a fluffy, creamy consistency. If needed, add more orange juice or water one tablespoon at a time.
- Slice the bread, then smear each piece with the tahini sauce. On the bottom piece, add the avocado slices, the crispy smoked tofu, tomato slices, and arugula. Then finish it off by topping with the remaining bread.
Notes
TIP: If you can't find smoked tofu, marinate standard tofu with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes, and then pan fry.
