ingredients:

serves 4

tofu marinade

  • 1 block extra firm tofu

  • 120 g greek yoghurt

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • 2 cm ginger, grated

  • 1/2 lime, juiced

  • 1/2 tsp garam masala

  • 1 tsp ground coriander

  • 1 tsp cumin

  • 1/2 tsp turmeric

  • 1/2 tsp paprika

  • 1/2 tsp hot chilli powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • pinch of black pepper

coriander yoghurt sauce

  • 130 g greek yoghurt

  • 1 small garlic clove, chopped

  • handful coriander

  • juice of ¼ lime

  • salt and pepper to taste

salad:

  • 100g cabbage, sliced

  • 1 celery stalk, sliced

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • juice of ¼ lime

  • salt to taste

to serve:

  • homemade or storebought flatbread

  • sriracha

  • coriander leaves

  • sliced chilis

  • pickled red onion

instructions:

marinate the tofu

  • Press the excess water from the tofu, then tear it into rough, bite-sized chunks (this helps it soak the marinade and crisp up nicely).

  • In a bowl, mix all the marinade ingredients until smooth, then add the tofu and gently toss to coat evenly. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

air-fry until charred

  • Preheat the air fryer to 180°C.

  • Arrange the tofu in a single layer and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway, until golden with crisp, charred edges.

make the sauce

  • In a hand blender, add all ingredients together until smooth and well balanced. Adjust with extra lime or salt if needed. If you want it thicker you can add 2 tbsps of neutral oil and blend again.

toss the salad

  • Combine the cabbage and celery with olive oil, lime juice, and salt. Toss well and let it sit briefly to soften slightly while staying crisp.

  • Before serving add a couple of tablespoons of the coriander yogurt dressing and mix.

assemble

  • Spread the coriander yoghurt sauce over warm flatbreads, then drizzle with sriracha to taste.

  • Add the tofu, followed by the salad and red onion pickles.

  • Finish with fresh coriander leaves and sliced chillies, then wrap and serve.
