No, I Don't Miss Bacon - Tofu Strips

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Press, drain and slice the tofu (Thickness depending on use, check notes!)**
  • Mix the stock, water and tamari together and stir
  • Line up the tofu strips on a tray, make sure they don't overlap. Pour over the liquid and make sure the tofu is evenly covered
  • Place the marinated tofu in the fridge for 1-2 hours to marinate
  • Preheat the oven to 175 C
  • Line a baking tray with some aluminium foil. Drain the tofu strips and lay them out onto the foil, making sure there's no overlap
  • Put them in the oven for 15 minutes each side (30 minutes total), until golden brown
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • The thinner the tofu slices the more bacon-y they taste.
  • If you're making them to have on a salad or with a dip I would make them thicker. 
If it's a crispy bacon alternative you want, cut thin strips of tofu (circa 4mm) bake for circa 20 minutes each side until it's really crispy all the way through.
For more of a chicken type texture (which is good for snacking, dips and salads) you'll want to cut fatter strips (circa 7mm) and bake for 20-25 minutes each side. Same recipe, same ingredients, similar cooking-time but the thickness of the strips gives you two different types!
Enjoy!
