Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb firm tofu
1 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
2 cups corn flakes, coarsely crushed
salt, to taste
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Take your tofu and cut it into 1/2-inch thick slabs across the short side of the tofu block and set them aside.
  • In a shallow, non-reactive bowl, combine your buttermilk and herbs and add the tofu to that bowl and turn it to coat well.
  • Let stand 20 minutes in this mixture.
  • Meanwhile, mix the cornflakes with the salt and cayenne and place it in a flat, wide dish.
  • Heat your olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and coat your tofu slabs in the cornflake mixture, making sure to press the cornflakes gently into the tofu to cover.
  • Place the coated tofu slabs in the heated pan and allow them to cook for 4 minutes until golden brown.
  • Turn the tofu and cook on the other side 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve immediately or place on a baking pan in a 200-degree oven to keep warm until ready to serve.
