Instructions
For the tofu
-
It is important that the moisture is pushed out of the tofu well so that it absorbs the marinade better. This can be done by placing the tofu between 2 chopping boards and putting something heavy on top for 15 min.
-
Slice the tofu. Marinate the drained tofu in the soy sauce, oil and chili flakes. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C until golden brown (20-30 min).
For the roll
-
Cut a baguette lengthwise and spread with the pâté or mayonnaise. Place the grilled tofu and the vegetable ribbons on this. Top it off with some extra leaves of coriander and mint and serve it with sriracha (or chili sauce) and hoisin sauce.
