You can find black salt at health food stores or simply order it online.
We use firm tofu which doesn’t need pressing underneath a weight. We simply squeeze the tofu between our hands to rid of any excess water before using.
The turmeric isn’t essential for flavour. We just add it for a more yellow egg-like colour so you could leave it out if you prefer.
Make this sandwich ahead of time and take it with you to munch on while you’re out. You could even make a bulk batch of the eggy filling, refrigerate and build the sandwiches fresh on the day.
