Mango Tofu Tacos Recipes

TOFU TACOS WITH MANGO SLAW

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine the coleslaw mix, mango, cilantro, red onion, jalapeno, and lime juice. Toss well to combine. Taste and add a little maple syrup or honey and salt and black pepper as desired, set aside.
• Remove tofu from packaging and slice into 8 equal pieces. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook until browned about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• While the tofu is heating, warm the tortillas using one of the methods in the notes section. Once warmed through, place tortillas in a clean towel and cover to keep warm.
• To assemble the tacos, spread tortillas with guacamole. Layer each one with 2 tofu pieces and 1/4 of the slaw mixture. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges, if desired.

SPICY VEGAN MANGO AND TOFU STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Combine pineapple, broth, mango, habanero, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and turmeric in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Pour sauce contents carefully into the bowl of a food processor or electric blender and mix until smooth. Set aside.
• Place tofu in a large mixing bowl and add enough cornstarch to lightly coat all pieces.
• Heat a wok over high heat. Add vegetable oil to the hot wok; heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add tofu and stir-fry until uniformly golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer tofu to a plate and set aside.
• Place celery, carrots, mangos, and green peppers into the wok and stir-fry until they are soft and have a bright color while remaining firm, about 5 minutes. Add tofu back to the pan with sauce and combine well. Taste and add salt as needed. Serve topped with cilantro and scallions.

FRIED TOFU TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Set the pressed tofu on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 4 hours, up to overnight. Let thaw completely, then cut into 8 ½-inch-thick strips. (Freezing is optional, but will give the tofu a meatier texture.)
• Meanwhile, make the crema sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, crema, lime juice, ancho chile powder, and salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the rice wine vinegar, ¼ cup canola oil, lemon juice and zest, caper brine, nori, sugar, and salt. Add the tofu to the marinade and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
• Heat the remaining 6 cups of canola oil in a wide, shallow pan over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 375°F (190°C).
• Add ½ cup flour to a medium plate. In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining cup of flour and the beer until a thick, but pourable, batter (similar to pancake batter) forms.
• Working in batches of 4-5 strips at a time, remove the tofu from the marinade and dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beer batter. Transfer to the hot oil and fry for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with salt.
• Assemble the tacos: Add 1 piece of fried tofu to each tortilla, then top with 2-3 tablespoons of pico de gallo and a handful of shredded cabbage and drizzle with 1-2 tablespoons of the crema sauce. Serve immediately with lime wedges alongside.
• Enjoy!
