Monday: Curried Tofu Croquettes
Serve tofu differently thanks to these crunchy croquettes. The plant-based protein is crumbled, then mixed with an egg and cornstarch as well as an onion and curry powder paste. The result is these tasty patties, best enjoyed with a sweet chili sauce for dipping and a side salad or green veggie of your choice.
