Crispy Tofu Schnitzel

Once you try this crispy tofu schnitzel, you will want more!

And the best thing? The tofu is 100% made in Luxembourg. Yes, BIOG have started a real pioneer project: the first organic tofu made entirely in Luxembourg – from soybean to final product.

It’s 100% organic, produced locally, and has a slightly softer, more delicate texture than most tofu. Exclusively produced for BIOG and available at Naturata shops.

For this recipe I’ve turned it into a crispy tofu schnitzel with a cornflakes coating, served with a simple salad with a lovely ready-made French dressing.

Made entirely with BIOG organic ingredients.

Ingredients

Serves 2

1 BIOG Tofu

For the marinade:
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp BIOG mustard
1 tbsp BIOG honey
½ tsp BIOG garlic granules

For the coating:
45g flour + extra for dipping
70ml water
1 ½ tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp BIOG mustard
1 tsp BIOG honey
40g BIOG cornflakes
BIOG olive oil for frying

For the salad:
A handful of BIOG pumpkin seeds
4 BIOG mushrooms
1 BIOG mixed salad with sweetcorn
1 bottle BIOG French dressing

Lemon wedges, to serve

Method

Press the tofu between 2 pieces of kitchen paper. Cut into 2 cutlets.

Mix the marinade ingedients and toss the tofu blocks in it so that they are covered on all sides. Leave to marinate for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, toast the pumpkin seeds in a dry frying pan and set aside.

Just before the 30 minutes are up, prepare the batter by whisking together the flour, water, soy sauce, mustard and honey until completely smooth.

Crush the cornflakes.

Put 3 tbsp of flour into a bowl and mix with a good pinch of salt and pepper.

Evenly coat the tofu with plain flour, and knock off any excess.

Next, dip the tofu in the batter. Use a fork to evenly coat it and briefly let drip off excess batter.

Then dip the tofu in the cornflakes and press so they stick.

Cover the base of a small frying pan with olive oil and heat it up on medium-high to high heat.

Fry the breaded tofu for 1 ½ minutes on each side until golden brown, then drain on kitchen paper.

Put the salad leaves in a bowl with the toasted pumpkin seeds. Thinly slice the mushrooms and add to the salad with a pinch of salt. Pour over some dressing and toss to combine.

Divide the salad between two plates. Add a schnitzel to each and a wedge of lemon and serve immediately.
