Method
- Drain and press the tofu to remove as much of the liquid as possible and slice thinly, to the width you desire.
- Add all of the 'bacon' style tofu ingredients, except the cornflour, to the container and mix together. Place the tofu in the sauce and mix to ensure each slice is covered. You may find it easier to shake the container if the slices are robust enough. Refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
- When you are ready to cook the tofu, heat the oil in a frying pan. Meanwhile, gradually add the cornflour to the tofu and mix to incorporate.
- Fry the bacon on both sides until you reach your desired consistency.
- Assemble your bread and layer the mayonnaise, tofu, lettuce and tomato and enjoy!
