Method

  • Drain the tofu on kitchen roll and pat dry (using a heavy plate to help squeeze out the water can help)
  • Slice the tofu into approx 1cm thick slices
  • Pour the balsamic vinegar onto a plate and marinate the tofu in it, 15 minutes on either side
  • Mix the polenta grains, chilli powder, crushed chillies and pepper together
  • Coat each slice of tofu in the mixture
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the coated tofu slices, cook until golden brown and crunchy on both sides (approximately 5 minutes each side)
  • Serve immediately with a fresh green salad and vegetables of your choice
