Ingredients
- 200 grams firm tofu
- 4 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 0.25 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon black salt (Kala Namak)
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves

Instructions
Drain and press the firm tofu to remove excess water, then crumble it into a large mixing bowl.
Add the vegan mayonnaise, nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, mustard, black salt, and black pepper to the crumbled tofu.
Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are well combined and the tofu is evenly coated.
Fold in the chopped chives gently; this will add a fresh flavor to the mixture.
Take the vegan bread slices and place a lettuce leaf on four of the slices.
Spread a generous amount of the tofu mayonnaise mixture over the lettuce covered bread slices.
Top with the remaining bread slices to form sandwiches.
For best results, serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to a few hours if you prefer them chilled.
