To make these you will need:

250gr firm tofu
oil to fry in

for the wet batter:
75ml soy milk
2tsp apple cider vinegar

Flour mixture:
40gr all purpose flour
1/2tsp cayenne pepper
1/2tsp salt
1/2tsp sugar
1tsp smoked paprika

Breadcrumb mixture:
30gr regular breadcrumbs
30gr panko breadcrumbs

For the sauce:
50gr vegan butter
1tbsp sriracha
1tsp sugar
1tsp garlic powder
1tsp smoked paprika

Cut the tofu into bite sized pieces. Then press it for 10 minutes. I press mine in between a towel and add a cutting board and a heavy pan on top.

While the tofu is pressing, prepare the 3 batters/mixtures that we're going to dip the tofu in.

Once the tofu is pressed roll each piece in the flour mix first, then dip it in the wet milk batter and lastly coat it in the breadcrumb mixture.

Add a layer of oil to a pan and heat this. Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the breaded tofu in cause otherwise they won't get as crispy. You can test if the oil is hot enough by adding one of the tofu pieces in and if bubbles start to form around the pieces (see video to see what I mean), the oil is hot enough and you can add the rest of the tofu pieces to it.

Fry the tofu for 4-5 minutes on each side on medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Flip them after 5 minutes or so and fry the other side.
Once the tofu is done, take the pieces out of the oil and let them leak out on a kitchen paper towel.

In the meantime make the sauce. Just melt the vegan butter, add the herbs, sriracha and sugar and mix to combine.

Lastly add your sauce to the tofu piece and mix with your hands to coat all the tofu.

The longer the tofu sits in the sauce, the less crispier it will get so only add the sauce right before serving.

If you want to make this ahead of time, just keep the sauce and the fried tofu pieces seperate until you're ready to eat.

Enjoy snacking on them like this or eat with some rice or noodles!
