Ingredients

  • 1 block of firm tofu
  • 200 g 7.05 oz sugar-free cornflakes
  • 150 ml (any will do)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika powder
  • as needed dried herbs (I used wild garlic, but any herb will do)
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • as needed salt&pepper
  • as needed seeds oil for baking

Instructions

  • Turn the oven on to 200°C or 400°F above and below.
  • Cut the tofu in half lengthwise to make two flat buns.
  • With a clean kitchen cloth, apply pressure to the tofu to remove some of the water inside.
  • Next, cut the tofu into even cubes.
  • In a bowl mix milk, paprika powder, cornstarch, garlic powder, dried herbs, salt and pepper.
  • In another dish put the cornflakes and destroy them with something flat. Otherwise put the cornflakes in a food bag, seal it with the cornflakes inside and use a rolling pin to destroy them.
  • Dip the tofu cubes first in milk, then in cornflakes, and then place them back on a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Once all the cubes are made, sprinkle the tofu with a drizzle of seed oil. 2 tablespoons should be enough.
  • Bake your crispy tofu for 30 minutes or until it is nice and golden brown.
