Method
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F) for 2 minutes.
Step 2
Transfer the tofu cubes, sprayed with some oil, to the basket and air fry for 5 minutes, or until browned on the edges. Flip and cook for another 7 minutes.
Step 3
While the tofu is cooking, fry the onion in the olive oil in a frying pan for 5–6 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and chilli flakes and fry for a further minutes.
Step 4
Pour in the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, maple syrup and half the lime juice. Cook on a medium heat for 2 minutes. Now add the cooked tofu, toss and season to taste.
Step 5
Mash the avocado in a bowl with most of the remaining lime juice and season to taste.
Step 6
To make the slaw, put the cabbage, spring onions, coriander, yoghurt and a little extra lime juice in a large bowl. Mix well and season to taste.
Step 7
To serve, heat the tortillas/tacos according to the pack instructions and then top with the sticky tofu, avocado and crunchy slaw.
