Crispy tofu fillets seasoned to taste like fish, tucked into buns with lettuce and sauce. A delicious vegetarian alternative to fish sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 1 (12 ounce) package firm tofu - drained, patted dry, and sliced into 4 slices
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon kelp powder 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder or flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt olive oil, as needed
- tartar sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup dill pickle relish
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 4 whole wheat hamburger buns, split
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a bowl, toss bread crumbs together with kelp powder, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, and salt. Dip tofu slices into olive oil, then bread crumb mixture, patting lightly to coat well.
- Bake on a cookie sheet in preheated oven for 30 minutes. When first side is golden brown and slightly crispy, turn over, and finish baking.
- Meanwhile, mix together mayonnaise, relish, and lemon juice until well-blended. When tofu is nearly done baking, brush each bun half with olive oil, and toast in the oven. Serve with tartar sauce and your favorite sandwich condiments.
