Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams firm tofu
- 4 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 0.25 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon black salt (kala namak)
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
- 2 pieces lettuce leaves
- 2 pieces vegan-friendly rolls
Instructions
Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture. This can be done by wrapping it in a clean towel and placing a heavy object on top. Leave it for at least 10-15 minutes.
After pressing, crumble the tofu into a medium-sized mixing bowl using your hands or a fork.
Add the vegan mayonnaise, nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, black salt, and black pepper to the crumbled tofu. Mix until well combined and evenly coated.
Stir in the chopped chives, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more black salt or pepper to suit your preference.
Cut the vegan-friendly rolls in half and lay a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each roll.
Spoon the tofu mixture generously over the lettuce leaves.
Top with the other halves of the rolls and serve immediately.
