1 block (about 14 ounces or 350 grams) extra-firm tofu, crumbled
2 Tbsp light oil (such as canola or vegetable)
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp chili powder
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (1/2 tsp if you like it spicier)
1/8 tsp ground cloves
- Open tofu, drain water and pat dry.
- Mix all the other ingredients together in a bowl to create a paste.
- Crumble the tofu into small pieces and mix it with the paste until the tofu is coated.
- Spread evenly on a greased cookie sheet (or one lined with parchment paper).
- Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes, stopping to stir the tofu every now and then. Keep a close eye on it towards the end so that it doesn’t burn. You want the tofu to be nice and browned. The smaller crumbles will be darker than the larger crumbles.
Use where as a substitute for ground sausage meat.
