Time 35m

Yield 10 slices, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 ounces extra firm tofu, vacuum packed, frozen, then partially thawed (easier to get thinner slices, water-packed okay too but will be less crispy)
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
3 tablespoons sunflower oil
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon low-sodium tamari
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 tablespoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons sunflower oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • 1. Slice partially thawed tofu into very thin slices. In a small bowl combine nutritional yeast, oil, syrup, tamari, salt, liquid smoke, salt and garlic powder and whisk until combined as much as possible.
  • 2. Pour bowl mixture into shallow baking dish. Place tofu slices in same dish so they are submerged in the liquid. Marinate for at least five minutes, but no longer than overnight. Be aware, tofu marinated too long will become delicate and easily break.
  • 3.Heat sunflower oil in medium cast iron skillet and fry tofu, about three minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve.
