Hoisin Tofu Baguettes

First we score our tofu, then we bake it in a rich hoisin sauce and layer it up in a baguette with avocado, spinach, cucumber and Sriracha mayo. Divine!

How many baguettes are there per serving?

• This recipe is enough to create two demi baguettes, which are small-medium in size. We recommend one demi baguette per serving, which means they’re fairly generous, but we just about manage to finish them in one sitting!

How much protein is there per serving?

• Thanks mostly to the tofu, each baguette contains a whopping 30g of protein, which makes them a great option if you’re looking for meals to keep your plant-based protein intake up.

Enjoy!

Notes:

• If you prefer, you can cover the tofu and marinate in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. This will add more flavour to the tofu, although the difference will be subtle and the tofu will still taste delicious if you don’t marinade. We tend not to marinate the tofu for this recipe.
• We use a brand of extra firm tofu, which doesn’t require pressing. The texture is very, very firm with almost no holes. This means it gets crispy in the oven, unlike other types of ‘firm’ tofu which contain a lot more water. If your tofu is quite ‘spongy’ and contains a lot of water, we recommend pressing it first until it’s no longer spongy.
• We use an equal blend of dark soy sauce and light soy sauce (1 tablespoon each), which adds a darker flavour. However this isn’t entirely necessary and you can use 2 tablespoons of regular soy sauce (which is usually light soy sauce) instead.
• We use small baguettes, which are approximately 25cm (10”) in length.
