I’m a long-time tofu lover and when it comes to cooking it, I’ve tried it all. Baking, frying, grilling, shredding, slicing, crumbling . . . the list goes on. So, believe me when I say this is one of the best.
Baked popcorn tofu is so moreish. It can be served with vegan mayo, enjoyed in tacos, added to curry, or tossed into a stir-fry. You simply can’t go wrong.
INGREDIENTS
METHOD
1 Preheat oven to 200°C fan-bake.
2 In a medium-sized bowl, mix together all crumb ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
3 Put oat milk into a small bowl. Dip tofu cubes into oat milk, then roll in the crumb to coat.
4 Place crumbed tofu on an oven tray and drizzle with olive oil.
5 Bake for 20 minutes, or until crispy and golden.
6 Serve with vegan mayo.
TIP
Squeezing the liquid out of the tofu prior to cooking will help it absorb the oat milk and crumb, making for crunchier popcorn bites.

This was originally called Crunchy Cauli. But one day, after Otis had written up the blackboard menu, a customer must have leaned up against it and smudged the ‘CR’ — so now it looked like ‘RA’. Nek minnit, a customer asked us what Raunchy Cauli was. And the name stuck.
