Instructions

Bake Peri Peri Tofu Cutlets

  • Remove tofu from the package. Discard the water. Cut tofu evenly in 12-16 slices.
  • Place each slice next to each other on a cotton clothe in line making sure each slice is evenly tall. Wrap clothe over the slices.
  • Place cutting board on top of the wrapped tofu sliced and an heavy object (e.g Mortar) right in the middle of that cutting board for 25-30 minutes. so the weight is evenly distributed over all the tofu slices.
  • Place corn starch in one bowl, peri peri sauce in one bowl, and place panko in a plate. Pre-heat oven on 420° F.
  • After 25-30 minutes, first dust a tofu slice with corn starch, then dip it in peri peri sauce, then coat it well with panko then place it on a baking sheet on top of parchment paper. Repeat this step for each tofu slice. Coat them with oil spray.
  • Bake the tofu slices/wings for upto 30 minutes. Turn them half way through. You can bake it longer if you wish to crisp it more, be sure to not burn them.

Make Avocado Ranch (skip this if using store bought)

  • Blend everything listed under "Avocado Ranch" to desire consistency.
  • Coat lettuce and kale (or spinach) with some avocado ranch. Do this step right before making wraps to avoid soggy salad. Leave some avodaco ranch to spread on each tortillas.

Make Wraps

  • Spread some avocado ranch on each tortilla. Place lettuce/kale mix in the center of the wrap on top of avocado ranch layer.
  • Cut 3-4 tofu cutlets in small strips and place them on top of lettuce layer. Drizzle some peri peri sauce on top.
  • Add a little more lettuce mix on top of tofu layer. Wrap it tightly without ripping the tortilla. Crisp them on all sides using cast iron with some cooking oil spray.
  • Once crispy, cut them in half and serve with choice of chips and beverage!
