Ingredients

For the Tofoo

  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced (can substitute for 1 tsp garlic puree)
  • Thumb of ginger, grated (can substitute for 1 tsp ginger paste)
  • 1 pack Tofoo Marinated Smoky BBQ Strips
  • 1 pear peeled, cored and cut into chunks
For the rest
  • 2 small baguettes, sliced in half
  • 6 slices American cheese/mild Cheddar slices/vegan alt

  • 2 tbsp kimchi/pickled onion (optional)
  • Sriracha
  • Kewpie mayonnaise/vegan mayonnaise
  • 2 spring onions, sliced
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Get started

  1. Pre-heat oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper. Heat your oil in a non-stick pan over a medium heat, add your garlic and ginger and fry for 1-2 mins until fragrant.
  2. Add your smoky BBQ strips and fry for 5 mins until your Tofoo is starting to crisp and colour (toss about to avoid any sticking). Add your pear and a pinch of salt and pepper and fry for a further 5 mins.
  3. Lay 3 cheese/vegan cheese slices in each baguette bottom and pop in the oven for a few mins until melted. Divide lettuce across each followed by kimchi/pickled onion if using.
  4. Load each with your smoky BBQ strips and pear before drizzling all over with Sriracha, kewpie mayo/vegan mayo and a sprinkling of spring onions and sesame seeds. A dirty and indulgent tea ready in 20 mins.
