Barbecue Tofu
- 2 blocks tofu, firm, extra firm, or super firm
- 2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 ½ tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup bbq sauce
Wraps
- 6 large tortillas
- ¼ cup red onion, diced
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Prepare the Tofu
If time permits, freeze the tofu blocks the night before. Defrost them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. This creates a dense texture but it's just fine to skip to the next step.
Puncture the packages and squeeze out the extra liquid. Wrap the tofu in a clean kitchen towel and press them with a heavy pan or tofu press for 30 minutes.
Make the Coleslaw
Mix the vegan mayo, agave, apple cider vinegar, dijon, salt, and pepper in a medium-sized bowl. Add the coleslaw mix to it and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate the coleslaw for now so the flavors can deepen.
Make the BBQ Tofu
Tear the tofu into bite-sized pieces of varying sizes into a large bowl. Sprinkle the garlic powder, paprika, and cornstarch over it. Stir to coat the pieces.
Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the oil and then the tofu when it's hot. Let the tofu cook for 10-12 minutes to cook off most of the excess moisture, stirring occasionally.
Once the tofu has some crispy edges, turn the heat off and stir in the bbq sauce.
Assemble the Wraps
Add ⅓ cup of tofu to the slight off-center of a large tortilla. Add another drizzle of bbq sauce on top. Top this with coleslaw, red onions, and a few fresh cilantro leaves.
Cover this filling with one end of the tortilla. Fold the sides of the tortilla toward the center then roll toward the long end until the wrap is sealed. Enjoy!
