Crispy Tofu Tacos and Chopped Salsa Salad [Vegan]
Baking the tofu rather than frying it uses far less oil to get the perfect level of crispness. You can whisk or mash the avocado dressing with a fork, but using a blender will guarantee a super-smooth result.

How to Prepare Crispy Tofu Tacos and Chopped Salsa Salad [Vegan]
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the diced tofu in a bowl, sprinkle in the spices, cornflour, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix with your fingers to coat, taking care not to break up the tofu too much. Transfer to a baking tray and bake for 20 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp.
- Meanwhile, put the tomatoes, cucumber, onion, and lettuce in a bowl, adding the jalapeños, cilantro, olive oil (if using), and a pinch of salt. Mix gently, then set aside.
- To make the dressing, put the avocado, garlic, and 1 tablespoon of lime juice into a food processor or blender and blitz until smooth.
- Add some cold water, a little at a time, until the mixture has a pourable yogurt-like consistency. Season lightly with salt and more lime to taste.
- When the tofu is ready, warm the tortillas in the oven for a couple of minutes. Pile some chopped salad into each one and divide the tofu equally between them. Spoon over some avocado dressing and a zigzag of chili sauce, if using. Fold in half and eat immediately.
