Tandoori Tofu Vegan Pizza Food

TANDOORI TOFU VEGAN PIZZA

Steps:

• 1. Make the natural yoghurt - process silken tofu, lemon juice, soymilk and apple cider vinegar until completely smooth. (This yoghurt will be used for three different components: the tandoori marinade, the pizza base sauce and the garnishing mint yoghurt) 2. Make the tandoori marinated tofu - add the diced extra-firm tofu to a bowl. Top with the tandoori paste, garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon of the vegan yoghurt (made in step 1). Stir until tofu is evenly coated. If possible, allow to marinate in the fridge for about 3 hours. If you in a hurry, allow at least half an hour. 3. Make pizza base sauce - Take half of the remaining vegan yoghurt mixture (from step 1) and put it in a bowl. Add the tandoori paste, sugar and the garlic clove. Stir to combine. Taste and adjust the sweetness and saltiness if needed. Set aside 4. Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius (fan-forced) 5. Make the mint yoghurt sauce - Add the remaining yoghurt mixture (from step 1) to a bowl with the mint leaves. Stir to combine and set aside. 6. Add the marinated tofu and the oil in a pan. Fry on high heat until browned on all sides. Set aside. 7. Line two pizza trays with baking paper or spray oil. Add the pizza bases to the trays and divide the pizza base sauce on both. Spread with a spoon until both pizza bases are evenly covered. Top with the onions, cherry tomatoes and the marinated tofu. 8. Bake for approx. 30 minutes until slightly browned on top. 9. Serve hot with a drizzle of mint yoghurt, salt and freshly cracked black pepper and a handful of baby spinach on each pizza. Enjoy!
