Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 4] portion recipe.

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7

Boil half a kettle

Cut the potatoes (skins on) into chips, then add them to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt

Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp

Step 1
2

While the chips are cooking, add the peanut butter, half the soy sauce (save the rest for later!), sriracha (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and the juice of 1/2 [1] lime to a small bowl with 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] boiled water

Stir until fully combined – this is your satay sauce

Step 2
3

Peel and slice the shallot[s] finely

Slice the cucumber finely

Chop the coriander finely, including the stalks

Step 3
4

Add the sliced shallot, sliced cucumber and chopped coriander to a bowl with the juice of the remaining lime and a pinch of sugar

Give everything a good mix up and set aside for later – this is your cucumber & shallot salad

Step 4
5

Drain the tofu and pat it dry with kitchen paper

Grate the tofu

Add the grated tofu to a large bowl with the remaining soy sauce, tamarind paste, cornflour, 2 tbsp [4 tbsp] flour, 50ml [100ml] cold water and a generous pinch of salt

Give everything a good mix up – this is your tofu fritter batter

Step 5
6

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a very generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat

Once very hot, add 4 large spoonfuls of the tofu fritter batter to the pan and press them down with the back of a spoon to flatten them into patties (cooking for 4? You may need to do this in 2 batches!)

Cook for 4-5 min on each side until crispy and golden – these are your tofu fritters

Step 6
7

Slice the ciabattas in half

Once the chips are almost done, remove them from the oven and add the sliced ciabattas to the tray

Return the tray to the oven for 3-4 min until the ciabatta is warmed through and toasted

Step 7
8

To assemble, spread a dollop of satay sauce on each toasted ciabatta base, then stack them up with the tofu fritters and some of the cucumber & shallot salad – these are your tofu fritter burgers

Serve the tofu fritter burgers with the chips and any remaining cucumber & shallot salad to the side

Enjoy!
