Crispy Salt and Pepper Spiced Tofu - Veganuary ZA

Ingredients

• 400g of firm tub tofu (I used Cauldron Original)
• 1 tsp of Chinese 5-spice (feel free to substitute with your preferred spice)
• 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil (rice bran is good as it has a high smoke point, olive oil works well too)
• 1 tablespoon of plain flour (if you're gluten or wheat intolerant, you can substitute for your preferred flour or use gram/chickpea flour)
• 1 teaspoon of dried chilli flakes (optional)
• Splash of soy sauce
• 1 sliced chilli, 1 spring onion, few slices of red onion (optional - for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons of oil (rice brand oil is good as it has a high smoke point but olive oil works well too)
• Salt & pepper
• Your favourite vegan dipping sauce - I love sweet chilli with this dish
