Steps:
- Drain the tofu and press it if necessary to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into rectangular slices approximately ½ cm or a ¼ inch thick.
- Prepare the batter by whisking together the flour, water, soy sauce, vegan dijon mustard, maple syrup and garlic powder until completely smooth.
- To prepare the breadcrumb coating, stir together the panko breadcrumbs, nutritional yeast, thyme, salt and pepper.
- Set up your breading station with three shallow bowls or plates containing the plain flour, the batter, and the seasoned breadcrumbs, plus a plate or board to set down the coated tofu.
- Evenly coat a slice of tofu with plain flour, and knock off any excess.
- Next, dip the slice in the batter. Use a fork to evenly coat it and briefly let drip off excess batter.
- Using the fork, transfer the battered tofu slice to the bowl of breadcrumbs. Using a second, dry and clean fork, completely cover the slice in breadcrumbs on both sides and around the edges. You can use gentle pressure of your hands to press the coating onto the tofu. Carefully shake off excess breadcrumbs and set the slice down on a prepared plate. Repeat the breading with the rest of the tofu.
- Pan Frying: Cover the base of a frying pan in vegetable oil and heat it up on medium-high to high heat. Fry the breaded tofu for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Adjust the heat if necessary. Once the tofu is done on both sides, set it down on a plate lined with a double layer of kitchen roll to soak up excess frying oil. If you are frying the breaded tofu in batches, top up with extra oil in between to keep the pan base covered.
- Oven Cooking (alternative method): Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Spread some cooking oil on a baking sheet and place the coated tofu on top. Gently rub the tofu in the oil, then turn the slices over and repeat. Bake for 15-20 minutes, turning the tofu over halfway through, until it has reached the desired colour and crunchiness.

BREADED, FRIED, SOFTLY SPICED TOFU
This tofu recipe is completely gorgeous. A former roommate introduced me to some basics with tofu, and over the past few years, I've settled on this ratio of spices and other breading ingredients. The crust on the tofu sticks is tasty and the texture is really wonderful. Serve with a relish or a dip of some sort (I love this with plain yogurt mixed with eggplant brinjal). I usually make this with a cumin-scented rice dish and a garlicky broccoli side.

Steps:
- Cut pressed tofu into 1/2-inch thick slices; then cut again into 1/2-inch wide sticks. Place tofu in a bowl, and pour broth over the top. Set aside to soak.
- In a separate bowl, stir together flour, yeast, salt, pepper, sage, and cayenne.
- Warm oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Remove tofu sticks from broth, and squeeze most (but not all) of the liquid from them. Roll sticks in breading. (You may have to roll sticks twice to end up with a fairly dry outer layer of breading.) Place tofu in hot oil; fry until crisp and browned on all sides. Add more oil if necessary.

PAN-FRIED TOFU
Firm tofu breaded with nutritional yeast then pan-fried until golden brown. Creates a crispy breading. Great with hash browns and toast for a weekend breakfast, lunch, whatever! My daughter likes to dip this in ketchup. Excellent in a sandwich. For a low-fat version you can also bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) on a nonstick baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes.
