Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into fillet shapes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In one bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. In a second bowl, combine plant-based milk and hot sauce. In a third bowl, place bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Tofu

    Dip each tofu fillet first in the flour mixture, then in the plant-based milk mixture, and finally coat it with bread crumbs.

  4. 4

    Fry the Tofu

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry each breaded tofu fillet until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Make the Garlic Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix vegan mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the hoagie rolls. Spread garlic aioli on both sides of the hoagie. Layer with fried tofu fillet, vegan cheddar, shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion slices.
