Ingredients
  

  • 1 package tofu extra-firm
  • 60 g tapioca starch
  • 200 ml plant-based milk
Gluten-free coating mix:
  • 50 g coconut shredded
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ⅓ tsp ground black pepper

Equipment

  • oven
  • mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Place the tofu between two plates, and press to remove excess liquid.
  2. Cut the tofu into even strips (I cut it into 12 strips)
  3. Make the coating by combining all the ingredients for the mix.
  4. Dip each piece of tofu into the starch, then into the milk, and after that roll it in a coating mixture.
  5. Bake the strips in the oven at 400 F (200 C) for 15 min, then flip them and bake for another 15 min.
  6. Serve with spicy sauce.
