Ingredients

  • 1 cup chickpea flour
  • ¼ tsp turmeric
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ salt
  • 2 ¾ cup water

For crispy tofu (optional)

For the sauce 

Instructions

  • Add the chickpea flour, seasonings, and water to a blender (or food processor with a puree setting) and blend until fully combined. No chunks of flour should remain.
  • Pour the batter in a saucepan and set over low-medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring until the batter is thick and clings to the side of the pan.
  • Working quickly (the chickpea tofu sets fast) add the tofu to a greased 8x8" pan (for thin tofu) or a loaf pan for thicker tofu. You can also use a mold for uniform sizes... I used this mold. Transfer to the fridge and allow to set for an hour.
  • Carefully remove it from the pan and slice into desired sizes.
  • If making crispy, lightly toss with arrowroot starch. Set a large pan over medium-high heat and add avocado oil. Add the tofu to the pan and crisp for 3-4 minutes on each side or until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside. Combine the ingredients for the sauce and serve over the tofu.
